Sandra by Barry Manilow
Intro: Em/D-C-Em/D-C
Em-D-C-D pause
D/C#
She's a great little housewife
Bm D
Though sometimes she talks like a fool
G F#m
But she helps at the store in the holiday rush
B Em A
And she picks up the kids after school
D/Am G Ab/G
And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home
F#m B
And she changes from mother to wife
Em A
'Til she feels the words hanging between them
D
And she hangs by her words to her life
C#/D Bm F#m
She says I swear I love my husband, I love my kids
Bm F#m C#m/F#m
I wanted to be like my mother
G A
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Bm Am
Oh there might have been time to be me
Dm/Am G F#m
For myself, for myself
Em D C
There's so many things that she wishes
Em D C
She don't even know what she's missin'
D Em-D-C-D
And that's how she knows that she missed
D/C#
She's a sweetheart, except when she's moody
Bm D
It's hard to get through to her then
G F#m
Depressed for a while when the youngest was born
B Em A
Oh but that happens now and again
D/Am G Ab/G
She might take a drink with the housework
F#m B
Or when Michael's kept late at the shop
Em A
A Martini or two before dinner
D
But she always knows when to stop
C#/D Bm F#m
She says I swear I love my husband and I love my kids
Bm F#m C#m/F#m
You know I wanted to be like my mother
G A
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Bm Am
Oh there might have been time to be me
Dm/Am G F#m
For myself, for myself
Em D C
There's so many things that she wishes
Em D C
She don't even know what she's missin'
D Em-D-C-D
And that's how she knows that she missed
D/C#
Oh they used to hold hands at the movies
Bm D
Now it's seldom if ever they go
G F#m
Once you've paid for the sitter and parkin' the car
B Em A
There's no money left for the show
D/Am G
She was doing the dishes
Ab/G F#m B
When a glass fell and broke on the tile
Em A
And she cut her wrist (quite by mistake)
D
It was real touch and go for a while
C#/D Bm F#m
She says Oh God I love my husband and I love my kids
Bm F#m C#m/F#m
You know I wanted to be like my, my mother
G A
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Bm Am
Oh there might have been time to be me
Dm/Am G F#m
For myself, for myself
Em D C
There's so many things that she wishes
Em D C
She don't even know what she's missin'
D Em-D-C-D-C-D-Em
And that's how she knows that she missed
