Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife Chords

(ver. 3)
Glen Campbell
Verse 1

    Gmaj7                                                  C
She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
Cmaj7                            G          Em
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
C              B7         C            B
What would he think if he saw her this way?
    Gmaj7                                         C
She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion as something comes into her mind
                         G             
Slowly starts dancing rememb'ring her girlhood
    C          B7           C           D
And all of the boys she had waiting in line

Chorus 1

D7   G            Am7           G        Am7
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
     G        Am7       G          D
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
                          C                         G    C   G  C
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me

Verse 2

     Amaj7                                          D
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
Dmaj7                       C#m         C#m7
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
     D            C#           Bm            C#
The first one he gave her now withered with age
    Amaj7                                             D
She closes her eyes and touches the house dress that suddenly disappears
Dmaj7                          C#m         C#m7  
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown
     D                C#        Bm        E
That broke all their minds back so many years

Chorus 2

E7   A            Bm7           A        Bm7
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
    A        Bm7       A           E
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
                           D                        A    D   A  D
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
F7   B            C#m           B        C#m
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
     B       C#m        B          F#
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
                           E                        B    C#m   B   C#m
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
G#    C#           D#m           C#        D#m
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife

(begin to fade away)

     C#       D#m        C#         G#
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
                          F#                         C#
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
