artist : alan jackson
song title : work in progress

E
okay i forgot about the trash
A
i didn’t trim the long hairs on my mustache
E B
i did buy you a ring i believe it was back in ’93
E
alright i admit it i forgot our anniversary
A
but i did pick up the baby this mornin’ at the nursery
E B E
that ain’t no big thing but it’s a gold star for me

( chorus )

A
you get tired and disgusted with me
E
when i can’t be just what you want me to be
A
i still love you and i try real hard
F# B
i swear one day you’ll have a brand new car
A
i even asked the lord to try to help me
E A
he looked down from heaven and said to tell you please
E B E
just be patient i’m a work in progress

E
i’m sorry i got mad waitin’ in the truck
A
it seemed like hours you gettin’ all dressed up
E B
just to go to shoney’s on a wednesday night
E
i read that book you gave me about mars and venus
A
i think it’s sinkin’ in but i probably need to re – read it
E B E
but i’m startin’ to see now what you’ve been sayin’ is right

( chorus again )

E
i know you meant well when you gave me those clogs
A
but my heels sure get hot down by the muffler on my hog
E B
i’m sure they’re stylish but i’ll take my boots
E
i try to do that healthy thing like you want me to do
A
but that low fat , no fat’s gettin’ hard to chew
E
now i love your cooking honey
B E
but sometimes i need some real food

( chorus again )

E
oh honey just be patient now
B E
i’m a work in progress
