Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]She [G]look[C][G][C][G][C]
[G]s i[C]n the mirror,
Stares at the wrinkles
that [F]weren't there yesterday,
And thinks of the young man
that [C]she almost married,
[F]What would he [E]think if he
[F]saw her this [E]way?
She [C]picks up her apron
in little girl fashion
as [F]something comes into her mind
Then slowly starts dancing,
remem[C]bering her girlhood
and [F]all of the [E]boys she had [F]waiting in [G]line
Ah, [C]such are the [Dm]dreams
of the [Em]everyday [Dm]housewife
You [C]see everywhere,
[Dm]any time[Em] of the day[G]
An everyday housewife
who [F]gave up the good life
for [C]me[Dm][Em][Dm][D]
The photograph album she
takes from the closet
And [G]slowly turns the page
Carefully picks up the [D]crumbling flower
The [G]first one he [F#]gave her
now [G]withered with [F#]age
She [D]closes her eyes,
touches the house dress
That [G]suddenly disappears
And just for the moment
she's [D]wearing the gown
That [G]broke all their [F#]minds
back [G]so many [A]years[Em][A]
[D]Such are the [Em]dreams
of the [F#m]everyday housewife
[Em]You see [D]everywhere,
[Em]any time[F#m] of the day[A]
An everyday housewife
who [G]gave up the good life
for [D]you[Em][D][B]
[E]Such are the [F#m]dream s
of the [G#m]everyday house[F#m]wife
[E]see everywhere [Gbm]any ti[G#m]me of the day[B]
An everyday housewife
who [A]gave up the good life
for [E]me[Gbm][E][Db]
[F#]Such are the [Abm]dream s
of the [A#m]everyday [G#m]house wife
You [Gb]see everywhere a[Abm]ny tim[A#m]e of the[C#] day
An everyday housewife
who [Cb]gave up the good life
for [Gb]me[Abm][Bbm][Eb]
[Ab]Such are the [Bbm]dream s
of the [Ab]everyday house[Bbm]wife
You [Ab]see everywhere,
[Bbm]any time o[Eb]f the day
An everyday housewife
who [Db]gave up the good life for me
