Intro: Gmaj7
She looks in the mirror
Cmaj7
And stares at the wrinkles that, weren't there yesterday
G
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
C B7 C B7
What would he think, if he saw her this way
Gmaj7
She picks up her apron, in little girl-fashion

As something comes into her mind
G
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
C B7 C D7 Am7
And all of the boys, she had waiting in line

Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
G Am7 G D
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife
C G Am7 G Am7 Amaj7
Who gave up the good life for me
The photograph album, she takes from the closet
Dmaj7
And slowly turns the page
A
And carefully picks up, the crumbling flower
D C#7 D C#7
The first one he gave her, now withered with age
Amaj7
She closes her eyes
Dmaj7
And touches the house dress that, suddenly disappears
A
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown
D C#7 D E7 Bm7
That broke all their minds back, so many years
