Key:  G Major 
 
INTRO:  Am  G/B  Cm  G   C/D 
 
VERSE: 
G                                   D                    Am 
Sometimes her morning coffee's way too strong 
 
       C                                             D         G 
And sometimes what she says, she says all wrong 
 
C      D   G                           D                
Right or wrong, she's there beside me 
 
       Am      G/B             C 
Like only a friend would be 
 
               Am                    Cm           G     C/D 
And that's close enought to perfect for me 
 
VERSE: 
       G                              D                       Am  
Now she's been known to wear her pants too tight 
 
       C                                  D       G 
And drinking puts her out just like a light 
 
C   D      G                        D 
Heaven knows she's not an angel 
 
               Am    G/B   C 
But she'd really like to be 
 
               Am                   Cm           G     Am   G/B 
And that's close enough to perfect for me 
 

      C                                                G 
She kisses me each morning.......And smiles her sleepy smile 
 
C            G/B       Am   G           F        Am7/E  D     D7 
She don't have to say it.......I can see it in her   eyes 
 
              G                     D 
Don't you worry about my woman 
 
                  Am          G/B       C 
Or what you think she ought to be 
 
         Am                   Cm           G           Am  G/B  Cm  G  C/D 
She's close enough to perfect for me
 
 
VERSE: 
G                             D                          Am  
Sometimes she gets down and starts to cry 
 
      C                       D        G 
But then again a lady has a right 
 
         C  D   G                  D 
She's everything I've ever wanted 
 
         Am   G/B   C 
She's all I'll ever need 
 
         Am                   Cm          G      Am  G/B     
She's close enough to perfect for me 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
G             Am       G/B      Cm                G 
Oh, she's close enough to perfect......for me 
 
 
G  D  Am  C   D   G  C   D   G    D  Am  G/B  C  Am   Cm  G  C/D   G      
repeat and fade
