Truckstop Honeymoon - The Ordinary Things
Track 2 on the album "Diamonds in the Asphalt"

Tempo: Slow

Verse 1
G            C                G
I love the ordinary things we do
                                  D
Like dragging all our kids to the Witchita Zoo
C                          G
Taking them to see the dinosaurs
               D
They've seen before, but I'm never bored
     G
of doing all that mundane stuff
of laundary and wiping asses
       D
I can never get enough
C                                     G
As long as it is mine and yours and theirs
              D
Baby I don't care
I love the ordinary things we do
                          N/C         G
But sometimes I want to be, fabulous too! [CHANGE OF TEMPO]

Tempo: Moderate

CHORUS:
G
I don't want to play no country music coz that
shit makes me feel old
I don't want to wear no piece of clothing that
I gotta wash and dry and fold
   C
I want to put on lipstick, I want to look hot
       G
I am tired of being drab and good coz baby I am not
    D
I want to love and live with you, Baby I really do
G
But I want to be fabulous too!

Verse 2
G
I don't want to get the breakfast, 
I don't want to dress the kids.
I don't want to talk about your work
or whatever it is you did
   C
I want to stay out late, I want to get up late too
    G
I don't want to be like everybody else, and neither do you
D
So make an effort honey, shave why don't you?
G       N/C
Coz you gotta be fabulous too!
