Date: May 6, 2010 (Song is great for Mother's day)
Intro: Em/D-C-Em/D-C
Em-D-C-D pause
She's a D/Dbgreat little housewife
Though sometimes she Bmtalks like a foolD
But she helps at the Gstore in the holiday Gbmrush
BAnd she picks up the Emkids after schoolA
D/Am G Ab/G
And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home
And she changes from Gbmmother to wife B
'Til she feels the words Emhanging between them A
And she hangs by her Dwords to her life
Db/D Bm Gbm
She says I swear I love my husband, I love my kids
Bm Gbm Dbm/Gbm
I wanted to be like my mother
But if I Ghadn't done it as Asoon as I did
Oh there Bmmight have been time to be me Am
Dm/Am G Gbm
For myself, for myself
There's Emso many things that Dshe Cwishes
She Emdon't even know what Dshe's Cmissin'
D Em-D-C-D
And that's how she knows that she missed
She's a D/Dbsweetheart, except when she's moody
It's hard to get Bmthrough to her thenD
Depressed for aG while when the youngest was Gbmborn
Oh but Bthat happensEm now and againA
D/Am G Ab/G
She might take a drink with the housework
Or when Michael's kept Gbmlate at the shopB
A Martini or Emtwo before dinner A
But she always Dknows when to stop
Db/D Bm Gbm
She says I swear I love my husband and I love my kids
Bm Gbm Dbm/Gbm
You know I wanted to be like my mother
But if I Ghadn't done it as Asoon as I did
Oh there Bmmight have been time to be me Am
Dm/Am G Gbm
For myself, for myself
There's Emso many things that Dshe Cwishes
She Emdon't even know what Dshe's Cmissin'
D Em-D-C-D
And that's how she knows that she missed
Oh they D/Dbused to hold hands at the movies
Now it's seldom ifBm ever they go D
Once you've paid for the Gsitter and parkin' thGbme car
There's Bno money Emleft for the show A
D/Am G
She was doing the dishes
Ab/G Gbm B
When a glass fell and broke on the tile
And she cut her Emwrist (quite by mistaAke)
It was real touch and Dgo for a while
Db/D Bm Gbm
She says Oh God I love my husband and I love my kids
Bm Gbm Dbm/Gbm
You know I wanted to be like my, my mother
But if I Ghadn't done it as Asoon as I did
Oh there Bmmight have been time to be Amme
Dm/Am G Gbm
For myself, for myself
There's Emso many things that Dshe Cwishes
She Emdon't even know what Dshe's Cmissin'
D Em-D-C-D-C-D-Em
And that's how she knows that she missed
End...
