    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

   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             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
