Verse:
C majorC
Well Jamie gets home from work
A minorAm
Puts a record on
D7D7 G+G
Fixes up the dinner, waits for Lily to come
C majorC
She's been teaching all day
A minorAm
She's got papers to mark
D7D7 G+G
She agrees with the kids when it comes to homework
C majorC
But there's a veggie lasagna
A minorAm
Left from last night
D7D7 G+G
She could warm it up, do a little salad on the side
C majorC
She lays the table
A minorAm
Pours two glasses of juice
D7D7 G+G
She hears her coming up the stairs, her key goes in the lock
C majorC
Then Lily gets home from work
A minorAm
Kicks off her shoes
D7D7 G+G
She smiles at Jamie and it lights up the room
C majorC
She's just back from the hospital
A minorAm
Another double shift
D7D7 G+G
She knew that nursing wasn't gonna be easy, but she wasn't expecting this
C majorC
In fact the only thing
A minorAm
That got her through today
D7D7 G+G
Was knowing she'd be coming home to Jamie, gay

Verse:
C majorC
The rent in Brighton
A minorAm
Isn't cheap
D7D7 G+G
Which is annoying, because that's where they live
C majorC
And that's all Jamie wanted
A minorAm
When she was growing up
D7D7 G+G
To move to Brighton, find a girl and fall in love
C majorC
That's exactly how it happened
A minorAm
When she met Lily
D7D7 G+G
Love at first sight and the rest is history
C majorC
Jamie went to work
A minorAm
To help pay for Lily's training
D7D7 G+G
But they toughed it out together, both scrimping and saving
C majorC
Until that final day
A minorAm
They both fully qualified
D7D7 G+G
Now just like Jamie, she's working all the time

Dancing round the kitchen
