Verse 3
C 
G 
Mornings we have toast and tea
C 
I gaze across the table,
F

she glares right back at me
C 
G 
And when we're getting low on jam
F 
I give her the last spoonful,
C 
G 
that's just the way I am
C 
G 
And I  drive her to work each day
C 
Even though it's early
F 
G 
and work is far away
C 
G 
And I  don't even say a thing
F 
C 
G 
When she plays the radio so loud you cannot think
Am 
F
