Version 1
HE THINKS HE'LL KEEP HER (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
------------------------------------------------
Actually in A; capo at the 2nd fret
G G Em C G G Em C
G G Em C
She makes his coffee, she makes his bed
G G Em C
She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
D D Am Am
When she was twenty-one she wore her mother's lace
D D Em C D
She said forever with a smile upon her face
G G Em C
She does the carpool, she PTA's
G G Em C
Doctors and dentists, she drives all day
D D Am Am
When she was twenty-nine she delivered number three
D D Em C D
And every christmas card showed a perfect family
G D C D G
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
D C D
Spit and polish till it shines, he thinks he'll keep her
G D C D G
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
D C D
God forbid you'd change your mind, he thinks he'll keep her
G G Em C
G G Em C
She packs his suitcase, she sits and waits
G G Em C
With no expression upon her face
D D Am Am
When she was thirty-six she met him at the door
D D Em C D
She said, "I'm sorry, I don't love you anymore"
G D C D G
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
D C D
Spit and polish till it shines, he thinks he'll keep her
G C D G
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
D C D
God forbid you'd change your mind, he thinks he'll keep her
(4 bars of instrumental)
D D Am Am
For fifteen years she had a job and not one raise in pay
D D Em C D
Now she's in the typing pool at minimum wage
G D C D G
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
D C D
Spit and polish till it shines, he thinks he'll keep her
G C D G
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
D C D
At least until you change your mind, he thinks he'll keep her
G G Em C G G Em C G G Em C G G Em C D G
