The First Year Blues

(início)

E
Now I've been marr__ied
About six months
                     A
Only six months you_ see_
B
The first three months
Was all ok
                            E
The last three__s killin'__ me
My wife began to hissin'
She cut down on her kissin'
                                  A
And then she failed to shi_ne my shoes
B
My shirts they came up wrinkled
My pants with dirt were sprinkled
                             E
And I too__k the first year blues
Well then she started naggin'
She left the sink a saggin'
With dishes piled up high
No food upon the table
She said if I get able
I'd cook something bye__ and bye__
Then I began to wonder
If I had made a blunder
When I__ said I_ do
She must have read my thinkin'
Her eyes began to blinkin'
And that gal broke in two__
Well I heard the dishes crashin'
And I began to dashin'
Gettin' out of sight
For right there was my honey
On who I'd spent my money
Turnin' in__ to dy__na_mi__te
Then after she'd exploded
Her meanness all unloaded
And things began to simmer down
I found myself a bleedin'
And very much a needin'
Of stitches taken a__ll around
Well then she started cryin'
I felt myself a sighin'
And then I took her in my arms
I was afraid to scold her
So I just gently told her
She didn't do___ a bi__t of ha__rm
Now the first six months is over
And I'm much the older
And experienced with a__ wife
If I can take the next six
My friends all say I'll be fixed
To take i__t the rest of my__ li__fe
