Every time I thinks about it, I just wring my hands and cry 
 

                                                                   G5 
Would the good old baby apologise or would she sympathise with me?

I love my woman, but why can't we can't agree 
D5                                 C5              G5 
I really love that woman, wonder why we can't agree
