  			Intro: Gmaj7 

         
She looks in the mirror  
                                 Cmaj7 
And stares at the wrinkles that, weren't there yesterday             
                                 G  
And thinks of the young man that she almost married  
C             B7           C            B7 
What would he think, if he saw her this way  
    Gmaj7  
She picks up her apron, in little girl-fashion   
   Cmaj7  
As something comes into her mind  
                        G  
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood  
    C          B7            C          D7   Am7  
And all of the boys, she had waiting in line  
D7  G            Am7           G        Am7  
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife  
    G        Am7       G           D  
You see everywhere any time of the day  
                                                   
An everyday housewife  
    C                         G  Am7 G Am7 Amaj7   
Who gave up the good life for me  
      
The photograph album, she takes from the closet   
Dmaj7                      
And slowly turns the page  
                            A  
And carefully picks up, the crumbling flower  
    D            C#7           D             C#7   
The first one he gave her, now withered with age  
    Amaj7  
She closes her eyes  
                                  Dmaj7   
And touches the house dress that, suddenly disappears             
                              A  
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown  
     D               C#7         D       E7    Bm7 
That broke all their minds back, so many years  
E7  A            Bm7           A        Bm7  
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife  
    A        Bm7       A           E  
You see everywhere any time of the day 
                                                  
An everyday housewife  
    D                         A  Bm7 A   
Who gave up the good life for me 
F#7 B            C#m7          B        C#m7  
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife  
    B        C#m7      B           F#  
You see everywhere any time of the day 
                                                  
An everyday housewife  
    E                         B  C#m7 B   
Who gave up the good life for me 
G#7 C#           Ebm7          C#       Ebm7  
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife  
    C#       Ebm7      C#          G#  
You see everywhere any time of the day 
                                                  
An everyday housewife  
    F#                        C#  Ebm7 G# C#   
Who gave up the good life for me...
