Intro: A   A  F#m   D     A   A

  F#m   D

A               A     F#m       
  She makes his coffee, she 
       D
makes his bed
A              A      F#m       
  She does the laundry, she 
       D
keeps him fed
E              E                
  When she was twenty-one she 
Bm               Bm
wore her mother's lace
E             E          F#m  -   
  She said forever with a smile 
D       E
upon her face

She does the carpool, she PTA's
Doctors and dentists, she drives all
 day
When she was twenty-nine she 
delivered number three
And every christmas card showed a 
perfect family

A        E                  D   
  Everything runs right on time,
            E             A
 years of practice and design
          D               D       
Spit and polish till it shines, he
              E
 thinks he'll keep her
A        E            D         
  Everything is so benign, 
    E                A
safest place you'll ever find
        E                     D   
God forbid you'd change your mind,
                 E
 he thinks he'll keep her
A   A  F#m   D
(instrumental)

She packs his suitcase, she sits and
 waits
With no expression upon her face
When she was thirty-six she met him 
at the door
She said, "I'm sorry, I don't love 
you anymore"

(CHORUS)

    E                  E          
For fifteen years she had a job 
   Bm               Bm
and not one raise in pay
E                   E            
  Now she's in the typing pool at
F#m - D     E
 minimum wage

Everything runs right on time, years
 of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines, he 
thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest 
place you'll ever find
At least until you change your mind,
 he thinks he'll keep her
