C                               G7              C
I come home every night and she meets me with a great big kiss
                            F            C
And she says I love you and how was your day
    F                                         C
She brings me my slippers cooks my dinner and holds my hand
                      G7                 C
And vows her love for me won't ever fade away
 
                                    F
Tell it like it was tell it like it was
            C                         G7              C
Not like it is cause it ain't no more tell it like it was

                      G7                   C
I told her once I was born with a restless streak in me
                                      F             C
But she laughed it off and said honey you're just a man
F                       C
Go where you have to go do what you have to do
                         G7                C
I love you I'll wait for you and I'll understand

Repeat #2

                     G7                 C
I called her up last night from down in Mexico
                          F             C
She said baby it's cold tonight and I'm alone
    F                          C
I'm not gonna hold anybody I'm not gonna kiss anybody
                  G7               C
I'm saving me for you till you get home

Repeat #2
