I've heard somebody  say
               G/B
How come some guy
       Am7
some  handsome prince, 
        D          G
hasn't swept you  away.
        F                 C
But I take off on that tour  bus
                    G/B   Am7

       G               A7sus
I've been asked that  myself.
 D          A/C#    G/B
Folks can't  understand
        A7sus4     Em7   
why a heart like  mine
                 A7sus4    A7
is still on the  shelf
           G            D/F#
But  I'm married to my music
       A       Bbdim    Bm7

Chely:  makes it hard to be a  wife-
Together:
G                         A          Bm7
Cuz I'd rather  play the grand ole  orpy,
G               A             D   Dsus  D
than go out to dinner an a  movie
G             
Right now I'm not thinking bout
     A           Bm7
a family of  my own
          G 
(Chely)-  cuz the bands on  stage,
                  A7sus4      A7
(Brad)- and I'm late for my  show.    (interlude repeat  verse)
              G                    A
(Togehter-) There's folks that think  
           Bm7
my life  is lackin
        G                 A
cuz my time at home is usually  
           D Dsus   D      G
spent  packin/          might  assume
                     A                 Bm7
that I don't have a clue what loves  about
         G

       D/F#          G         A7sus4 A
the way  if feels to hear somebody say

Your song sure means a lot to  me, 
            Em7              A7sus4  A7

        G                    D/F#
(Brad-) If hearing words like that mean  
      A         Bbdim    Bm7
giving up my soul to  life.
                   G        D/F#          Em7
