Dreams of the Everyday Housewife Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
She [G]looks in the mirror
and stares at the wrinkles
[C]That weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man
that [G]she almost married
[Am]What [C]would he [B]think if he
[Am]saw her this w[B]ay?

[Verse 2]
She [B]picks [G]up her apron in little girl-fashion
As As [C]something comes into her mind
Slowly starts dancing remem
[G]bering her girlhood
And [C]all of the [B]boys she had
[C]waiting in [D]line
[Am]

[Verse 3]
[D]Oh, [G]such are the [Am]dreams of the
[G]everyday [Am]housewife
You [G]see every[Am]where any [G]time of the [D]day
An everyday housewife who [C]gave up the
good life for [G]me

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C][G][Am][A]

[Verse 4]
The [A]photograph album she
takes from the closet
[D]And slowly turns the page
And carefully picks up the
[A]crumbling flower
The [D]first one he [C#]gave her
now [D]withered with age
[C#]

[Verse 5]
She [A]closes her eyes and
Touches the house dress that
[D]suddenly disappears
And just for the moment she's
[A]wearing the gown
That [D]broke all their [C#]minds
back [D]so many [E]years
[D]

[Verse 6]
[E]Oh, [A]such are the [Bm]dreams of the
[A]everyday [Bm]housewife
You [A]see every[Bm]where any [A]time of the [E]day
An everyday housewife who [D]gave
up the good life for [A]me
[Bm][A]

[Verse 7]
[F#]Oh, [B]such are the d[C#m]reams of the
[B]everyday [C#m]house wife
You [B]see every[C#m]where any [B]time of the [F#]day
An everyday housewife who [E]gave
up the good life for [B]me
[C#m][B]

[Verse 8]
[B]Oh, [C#]such are the dreams of
the everyday housewife
You [C#]see everywhere any time of the day
