Work in Progress by Alan Jackson, cd: Drive
[E]Okay, I forgot about the trash
[A]I didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache
[E] I did by you a ring, I believe it was back in [B]'93
[E]Alright I admit, I forgot our anniversary
[A] I did pick up the baby, this mornin' at the nursery
E B E slide E to F# up to an
[A]That ain't no big thing, but it's a gold star for me.
[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
[B]I swear one day you'll have a brand new car
[A]I even ask the Lord to try to help me
[E]He looked down from heaven and said to [A]tell you please
Just be [E]patient,[B] I'm a work in [E]progress
[E]I'm sorry I got mad, waitin' in the truck
[A]It seemed like hours you getting' all dressed up
Just to go to [E]Shoney's, on a Wednesday [B]night
[E]I read that book you gave me 'bout Mars and Venus
[A]I think it's sinkin' in but I probably need to reread it
But I'm s[E]tartin' to see now.[B]..what you been sayin' is [E]right
Chorus, break.
[E]I know you meant well when you bought me them clogs,
[A]But my heals get hot down by the mufflers on my hog
[E]I'm sure they're stylish, but I'll take my [B]boots
[E]And I've tried to do that health thing like ya want me ta do
[A]But that low fat and no fat's getting hard to chew
[E]I love your cooking honey but..[B]sometimes, I need some real [E]food...chorus
