Work In Progress

Alan Jackson

Tom: E

E
Okay, I forgot about the trash
A
I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache
E                                                B
   I did by you a ring, I believe it was back in '93
E
Alright I admit, I forgot our anniversary
A
   I did pick up the baby, this mornin' at the nursery
              E                     B             E   E  F# A
That ain't no big thing, but it's a gold star for me.

Refrão:
A
You get tired and disgusted with me
E
When I can't be just what you want me to be
A
I still love you and I try real hard
B
I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
A
I even ask the Lord to try to help me
E                                      A
He looked down from heaven and said to tell you please
        E       B              E
Just be patient, I'm a work in progress

E
I'm sorry I got mad, waitin' in the truck
A
It seemed like hours you getting' all dressed up
              E                        B
Just to go to Shoney's, on a Wednesday night
E
I read that book you gave me 'bout Mars and Venus
A
I think it's sinkin' in but I probably need to reread it
         E                  B                         E
But I'm startin' to see now...what you been sayin' is right

E
I know you meant well when you bought me them clogs,
A
But my heals get hot down by the mufflers on my hog
E                                          B
I'm sure they're stylish, but I'll take my boots
E
And I've tried to do that health thing like ya want me ta do
A
But that low fat and no fat's getting hard to chew
E                              B                           E
I love your cooking honey but..sometimes, I need some real food...chorus
