[Verse 1]
C                      G      Am
I married Charlie when I was sixteen
 F                             G  
But I didn't love him and he 
    C
didn't love me
 C                       G  Am
Frank was sweet, sent me poetry
 F                            G   
But it wasn't the same as it was 
   C
on TV

[Verse 2]
C                        G    Am
A lonely widow with no place to go
  F                            G  
For a time I settled on the 
    C
Florida coast
 C                     G     Am
Rick and Arlie, they had to go
    F                     G   
To join the rest of my family's 
     C
ghosts

And oh, oh, oh
   F               G      C
I haven't been a perfect wife
       Am G   F
I'm a lonely heart
    F              G              
Looking for the real romance of my

 life

    C                              
Now Sam was a hard man with a real 
 G    Am
mean streak
        F                 G 
Said women don't need romance 
      C
magazines
 C                        G  
But I showed him with his last 
  Am
coffee
     F                           
And now they can do anything they 
   G       C
like with me

[Chorus]
    Am  G   C
And oh, oh, oh
   F               G      C

         Dm          Am
Take it easy, don't worry
         G
I'll be fine in here
      Dm                Am
I'm sure I'll find my perfect mate 
yet
           G
And my conscience is clear

[Verse 4]
       C                           
Didn't do it for the money, in 
    G    Am
truth I was bored
   F                 G   C
Nobody writes to me anymore
    C             G    Am
Cigarettes and prison walls
    F                        G    
Will keep me company till I meet 
   C
the Lord

And Lord knows that


[Chorus]
    Am  G   C
And oh, oh, oh
   F               G      C
I haven't been a perfect wife
