Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking

There ain't a lady in the land so fine, oh my

Remember them basement parties,
Your brother's karate

I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
A D
When you sat down and cried on the stairs

You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it's worth

You made me feel a millionaire
A
And you wear it well
Em D/F# A
*G
Madame Onassis got nothing on you, no no
[Verse]
D D G
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told

That I gotta get back to work

So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone

Think of me and try not to laugh
A
And I wear it well

I don't object if you call collect
