Am
Let's go back to the beginning
                  A#maj7   A#maj7 Am7  Am7
I just wanna be a good wife

 A#maj7
Waking him up nice and slow, bring coffee in bed
 Am7
Listen to his problems, tell him that I understand
A#maj7
Touch him so he knows in his heart,
he's the only one
Am7
Try to loosen up and be more fun
                      A7
Yeah, I could be more fun

Chorus:
                  Gm7
God, help me be a good wife
           Am7
'Cause he needs me
               Gm7
Even when he's not right
          Dm7
He still needs me

Help me let go of all the things that make me mad
At the end of the day, he's gotta
know that I've got his back
And if he comes home stressed out,
I could pack him a bowl
Just let him be himself, don't try to control

Chorus:
God, help me be a good wife
'Cause he needs me
And even when he's not right
Yeah, he still needs me

         F      Fmaj7
And the truth is
                              A#maj7
I could probably make it on my own
       Fmaj7
But without him,
                               Am7
This house just wouldn't be a home
A7                      A#maj7 A#maj7 Am7  Am7
 And I don't wanna be alone

Chorus:
God, help me be a good wife
Yeah, 'cause he needs me, oh
And even when he's not right
I know he still needs me
Help me be a good wife
'Cause I need him, ooh
And I know, I know, I know
Yeah, I know, I know, I know that I need him

              A#
Help me be a good wife
                  Am      A# F
I just wanna be a good wife
