Chords C G C F G.....Just try and keep up. It's pretty fast.


[C]I've all my [G]wisdom teeth

[C]Two up to, [F]two be[G]neath

And yet I'll recognise

My mouth says things that aren't so wise

But when I sing my darling's praise

I know I'm right, or close anyways

For she's a gem upon this earth

I know to me she will return

CHORUS ***

Oh I [C]know it's [F]true, [C]I know it's [F]true.

That [C]I was made [G]for her, and [C]she me [G]too.

And I'm [C]confi[F]dent that she'll [C]think so [F]too

And [C]she'll be [G]coming back.....[F]soon [G]

Mornings we have toast and tea

I gaze across the table, she glares right back a t me.

And when we're running low on jam

I give her the last spoonful, that's just the way I am

And I drive her to work each day

Even though it's early and work is far away

And I don't even say a thing

When she plays the radio so loud you cannot think

BACK TO CHOURS ***

[G]I can't stand her [F]goddamned [C]friends

But [F]I will toler[C]ate them, [F]even though I 
them

And [G]I will put up with [F]her par[C]ents

'cause she says [F]I'll not ever [C]meet someone who [F]is so 
and

[C]sweet ever ag[G]ain [F] [C]

BACK TO CHORUS ***

I've all my wisdom teeth

two up top, two beneath

and yet I'll recognise

My mouth says things that aren't so wise

But when I sing my darling's praise

I know I'm right, or close anyways

For she's a gem upon this earth

I know to me she will return

BACK TO CHOURS ***

And [C] she'll be [G]coming back.....[F]soon [G]
