Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants

Three car garage, her own credit cards

 He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight

If he could only read her mind she'd say

Chorus

Buy me a rose, call me from work

 Open a door for me what would it hurt

 Show me you love me by that look in your eye

These are the little things I need the most in my life

Verse 2

Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone

She can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong

 Lately she'd try anything to turn his head

Would it make a difference if she'd said

Chorus

Bridge/Verse 3:

 And the more that he lives, the less that he tries

 To show her the love that he holds inside

 And the more that she gives, the more that he sees

This is a story of you and me

 So I bought you a rose on the way home from work

 To open the door to a heart that I hurt

 And I hope you noticed this look in my eye

Cause I'm gonna make things right for the rest of your life

The rest of your life

 And I'm gonna hold you tonight

Do all those little things for the rest of your life
