**Capo 1**
Intro: D then G-D (3 times)
D
I work all day in a break neck run
G
Just to come home to another pile of work to be done
D G-D (2 times)
And all I wanna do is flop on the couch and die
D
Baby comes in he's give out too
G
I say it's pizza or nothing, and Trixie's all out of dog food
A
I could just break right down and cry
Chorus:
D G A
I need a vacation from my life
G D
Me and my husband we need a wife
G A Asus-A
Somebody who's soul ambition is laundry
D G A
I wanna fall asleep on the patio swing
G D
While somebody else does the dishes and cleans
G A
Mariachis could stroll through the yard and play softly
G A
Wouldn't even have to leave 2523 General George Patton Drive
G A D G-D (2 times)
I need a vacation from my life
D
Don't even get me started on Saturdays
G
All I do is rearrange the clutter
D G-D(x2)
Yeah I invented shabby chic
D
Who wants to mow when it's so dang hot
G
Me and baby got a theory about our little half acre lot
A
If it blooms it's not a weed
REPEAT CHORUS (last line lyrics change to oh oh oh)
REPEAT CHORUS (last part changes to):
G
Wouldn't even have to leave this state, Tennessee

2523 General George Patton Drive
