I can't remember how I met her,
G7G7 G#7G#7 G7G7 C#9C#9
Seems, she's always been hangin' here off my right arm,

I can't remember how I ever,
Am7Am7 BbM7Bbm7 Am7Am7 D9D9
Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm.
Verse 3:
G7G7 Am7Am7 D7D7
Now, even though she loves the smell of French perfume,
G7G7 Am7Am7 D7D7

Man, she's no lady, she's my wife.
