Chorus:
D MajorD G+G
I had a stove and a window screen
C majorC FF
I had a table painted green
Bb majorBb FF
Sat on a chair with a broken back
C majorC FF
Wearing a pretty potato sack
D MajorD G+G
I had a rug upon my floor
C majorC FF
And roses grew around my door
Bb majorBb FF
I had a job, my wants were few
C majorC FF
They were until I wanted you
Bb majorBb FF
And when I set my eyes on you
C majorC
Nothing else would do
D MajorD
Nothing else would do
