Capo 2

  D                          G                                 D   
I don't know how to tell her I didn't get that raise in pay today 
      C                             G 
And I know how much she wanted that dress in Baker's window 
       D                  G               D     G
And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait 
           D                 G           D
And cancel all the plans she made to celebrate 
      C                              G               D
I can count on her to take it with a smile and not a frown 

She knows that 


Chorus:
D
Life has its little ups and downs 
     D                    D7
Like ponies on a merry-go-round 
    C                                 G
And no one grabs the brass ring every time 
              D
But she don't mind 
            A                G
She wears a gold ring on her finger 
    G                     D
And I'm so glad that it's mine 


The new houseplans we've had so long ,I guess will gather dust another year 
And the daffodils are bloomin that she planted way last fall 
Upon the hill over by the gate 
Lord knows I hate to say again we'll have to wait 
But you can bet that she'll just take it with a smile and not a frown 
She knows that 

Chorus

She wears a gold ring on her finger 
And I'm so glad that it's mine
