E5            Ab5                F#5         A5
    He leans back, picks up his fork
E5           Ab5                 F#5       A5                           
    Looks nervous down at the pork, he search his pocket
E5           Ab5             F#5              A5
    hold my breath as knees hit the ground
E5           Ab5             F#5               A5
    he bends down pick up his sock, and this is how it sounds


E5            G#5                A5      A5
   Would you check out my old shoes
E5                G#5              A5             A5
   your cooking is way too good, not something to throw away
E5                   G#5            A5      A5
   Would you do me the honor to do the dish
E5              G#5               A5
   And honey tomorrow, what about fish?

E5             Ab5                   F#5         A5
   I said I?d wait for you till the end
E5              Ab5         F#5                 A5
   But dear I never really knew, what that meant
E5           Ab5              F#5         A5
   I never pictured the red Sedan
E5        Ab5               F#5               A5
   Housekeeping instead of law, and you going on about


E5               G#5                  A5      A5
   Those big old holes in those damn shoes
E5             G#5            A5      A5
   And how my cooking is too good, for you to throw away
E5                     G#5               A5        A5
   I keep doing you the honor taking the dish
E5             G#5                            A5
   And honey tomorrow, (do your own fucking fish!)
     A5
  (Lady, you wish)

    (I can always wish) (m-m )


A5             E5               G#5     A5
   the same old song the same routine,  kid, house and dog 
A5                   E5                G#5
   then he hands me a box, said here's the deal:


E5             G5              A5            A5
   (Oh)Please marry this old shoe
E5                  G#5              A5             A5
   Your cooking is so darn good, let me have a bite on my last day
E5                  G#5                     A5          A5
   Would do me the honor? He asked with a kiss
E5                G#5               A5
   Honey let it wait, forget that fish
   A5               E5 G#5 A5
   Lady, you're my wish.
A5             E5 G#5 A5
   My one final wish.
A5                       E5 G#5 A5
   The single wish I have-    -mmmmhm.


E5              Ab5                  F#5 
   I said I'd wait for you till the end
E5              Ab5            F#5          A5 
   And dear I finally think I know what I meant
