Dreams of the Everyday Housewife - Glen Campbell


D7D7        D MajorD
She looks in the mirror and stares at the
       G+G
Wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
                 A augmentedA     D MajorD
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
G+G       D MajorD      E minorEm      F#7F#7
What would he think if he saw her this way

  D MajorD
She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion
  G+G
As something comes into her mind
            A augmentedA       D MajorD
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
  G+G     D MajorD      E minorEm     A7A7
And all of the boys she had waiting in line

  D MajorD      E minorEm      D MajorD    E minorEm
Oh such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
  D MajorD    E minorEm    D MajorD      A augmentedA
You see everywhere any time of the day
             G+G             D MajorD
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me

  D MajorD
The photograph album she takes
          G+G
From the closet and slowly turns the page
              A augmentedA     D MajorD
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
  G+G      D MajorD      E minorEm      F#7F#7
The first one he gave her now withered with age

  D MajorD
She closes her eyes and touches the
         G+G
House dress that suddenly disappears
               A augmentedA
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown
   G+G        D MajorD     E minorEm   A7A7
That broke all their minds back so many years


  D MajorD      E minorEm      D MajorD    E minorEm
Oh such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
  D MajorD    E minorEm    D MajorD      A augmentedA
You see everywhere any time of the day
             G+G             D MajorD
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me

Oh such are the dreams of the everyday housewife

An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
