[Verse 1]
Okay I [Cm]forgot about [C]the trash
I [F]didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache
[C]I did[Cm]n't buy you a rin[C]g I believe
it was back [G]in [Dm]'93[G]
[Cm]Al right I a[C]dmit it I forgot our anniversary
I [F]didn't pick the baby this
morning at the nursery
That ain't no [Cm]big [G]thing but it's
a gold star for me
[C][Cm][C]

[Verse 2]
[F]You get tired and disgusted with me
[C]But I can't be [Cm]just what
you want me to be
[F]I still love you and I try real hard
[D]I swear one day you'll
have [G]a brand new car
[F]I even asked God to try to help me
He [C]looked down from Heaven
and said [F]to tell you please
Just be [C]patient,
[F]I'm[G] a work in progress[Cm]

[Verse 3]
[C][Cm]
I'm sorry I was [C]mad for
waiting in the truck
[F]It seemed like hours you
getting all dressed up
Just to go [C]to Shoney's on
a Wednesday [G]night
I [Cm]read that book you gave
me about Mars and Venus
I [F]think it's soaking in but
probably need to re-read it
it
[C]But I can see [G]now what
you've been saying is right
[C]

[Verse 4]
[F]You get tired and disgusted with me
[C]But I can't be just what you wan[Cm]t me to be
[F]I still love you and I try real hard
[D]I swear one day you'll
have [G]a brand new car
[F]I even asked God to try to help me
He [C]looked down from Heaven
and said [F]to tell you please
Just be [C]pa [F]tient, [G]I'm a work in progre[C]ss
