"I'm alright," said the man to his wife

Waking up to a head full of bed

        A#
Full of what she said

F          Dm                  F
She hadn't thought of it for a while

    Dm        A
And when she did

     A#           F*
She thought of it differently

         C                     A#
Than she thought she should be thinking

F        Dm         F      Dm    A
Just the thought of it's enough

   A#      F*    C         A#
To penetrate my comfort zone 

[Repeat Chorus]
