[B] _ _ _ _ Coming home from work one day I stopped in at the store.
Lady next to me in line, guess
about eighty-four.
[E] She looked so sweet and innocent I had to say hello and [B] how are you?
She said, [F#] well there when you get to my age things start drooping at this stage.
I mean
the eyesight's not what it used to be so me knitting had to stop you see.
And it's hard
to move with a plastic hip.
Dr.
Jane's removed this thing from me lip.
[E] Fluid retention takes
its toll.
I mean I really do [F#] have bladder control.
[F#] I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. _
[E] Sorry _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ I
[E] asked.
I never realized that you would be complaining [F#] half the night. _
[B] I was just making
[D] conversation [E] that's just too much [F#] information.
_ [B] Sorry I asked. _ _ _ _
_ _ Running late to catch a plane
I stopped to get some fuel.
There behind the counter was a girl I [F#m] knew in school.
[E] I really
had no time to spare.
Still I said hello and [B] how are you?
She [F#] said, well Sharlene's
five now and Scott's thirteen.
He's a mongrel Sharl, you know what I mean.
If his father
would just take control with the lazy bastards on the dole.
But I love his mullet and his
flannel-legged shirt and he's good to me because he lets me work.
[E] He and mum don't see eye
to eye.
So we're moving out [Bm] to give his mum a try.
[F#] I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
_ [E] Sorry I asked
how you were doing.
I was really only trying to [B] be polite.
_ Sorry I asked.
I never realized
that you would be complaining [F#] half the night.
I [B] was just making [D] conversation [E] that's just
too much [F#] information. _

_ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ [B] My best friend knew a guy from work sent us on a [B] blind
date.
Said that he was made for me.
Believed that it was fate.
[E] When we met he looked so
fine I had to say hello and [B] how are you?
And he [F#] said, well my third wife's taken me to
court.
She wants the house for my first white law.
I lost five hundred bucks at the TAB.
What do you know about declaring bankruptcy?
My oldest son's nearly up for parole.
The
youth runs great for the party [E] stuff.
But you're not as ugly as I feared.
This is the
first date I've had since the rashes [F#] cleared.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
_ [E] Sorry I asked how
you were doing.
I was really [Bm] only trying to be [B] polite.
_ [E] Sorry I asked.
I [D] never [E] realized
that you would be complaining [F#] half the night.
I [B] was just making [D] conversation [E] that's just
too much [F#] information.
[B] Making [D] conversation [E] that's just too much [F#] information.
_ Sorry I
asked. _ _
[B] _ _ [E] _ Sorry I asked.
[Bm] Just ate [B] items all last year.
[A] _ _ [B] Charlene get back under the counter
please.
You're not supposed to be at work.
