Woman in the Back of My Mind chords

            written by Ronal McCown and Roger Jauden

C
I see my wife working ironing my shirts
       F
And my mind goes to another day
    G7
And to another woman who might've been my wife
                                 C
If things hadn't turned out this way
 
 
Lord knows I love her but I often wonder
   F
If fate should pull back the blind
 G7
How would my wife feel if she could see
                            C
The woman in the back of my mind
 
 
Does she do things fancy does she have a family
   F
Is she as happy as I
    G7

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



Does she spend her afternoons just playing bridge
                         C
Or baking the children a pie
 
 
And I often wonder if she thinks of me
     F
When she hears those old church bells chime
  G7
Though it's been long ago at times I miss her so
                            C
The woman in the back of my mind
 
 
Suddenly I come back to right here and now
   F
And the dreams that I've seen come to life
  G7
And I hope she's as happy with somebody else
                       C
As I am with my loving wife
 
 
I might have been wrong but it's been so long
    F
And things work out in time
    G7
But I'd like to say I'm sorry some day
                               C
To the woman in the back of my mind
