Verse
E MajorE
I don't know how to tell her
A augmentedA E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
I didn't get that raise in pay today
D MajorD
And I know how much she wanted
A augmentedA
The dress in Baker's window
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait
A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
And cancel all the plans she made to celebrate
D MajorD A augmentedA
But I can count on her to take it with a smile
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
And not a frown, she knows that
Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
Life has its little ups and downs
Like ponies on a merry go round
E7E7 D MajorD A augmentedA
And no one grabs the brass ring every time
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
But she don't mind
BB A augmentedA
She wears a gold ring on her finger
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
And I'm so glad that it's mine
The new house plans we've had so long
A augmentedA E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
I guess, will gather dust another year
D MajorD
And the daffodils are bloomin'
A augmentedA E MajorE
That she planted way last fall upon the hill
A augmentedA E MajorE
And over by the gate
A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
God knows, I hate to say again, we'll have to wait
D MajorD A augmentedA
But you can bet that she will take it with a smile
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
And not a frown,
Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
she knows that life has its little ups and downs
Like ponies on a merry go round
E7E7 D MajorD A augmentedA
And no one grabs the brass ring every time
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
But she don't mind
BB A augmentedA
She wears a gold ring on her finger
E MajorE
And I'm so glad that it's mine
Outro
