Intro: E G# A A, E G# A A


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


E	      G#                A	A
   Would you check out my old shoes
E		    G#	        A	       A
   your cooking is way too good, not something to throw away
E		       G#		A	A
   Would you do me the honor to do the dish
E	        G#		   A
   And honey tomorrow, what about fish? 
A
   (Lady, you wish)


E Abm F#m A


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


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


E G# A A,            E G# A A
    (I can always wish) (m-m)


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


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


E              Abm                  F#m 
   I said I'd wait for you till the end
E              Abm            F#m          A 
   And dear I finally think I know what I meant
