Gene Watson - Three guitar chord

Three

By Gene Watson

E

The day that we were married

A

The people shook my hand

B7

They said we two were now as one

A E

And me a lucky man

E

From that day on that's all I ever

A

Wanted us to be

B7

Until the day you told me

E

We'd be three

E

Then we began the waiting

A

And made our little jokes

B7

You couldn't look at monkeys

A E

And I gave up my smokes

E

You prophasized he'd be a boy

A

And look a lot like me

B7

Lord but I was proud

E

That we'd be three

F

One night the endless days of waiting

Bb

All came to an end

C7

You woke me from my restless sleep

Bb F

And said we must go in

F

The sun won't rise on any day

Bb

Again like that for me

C7

The day had come when

F

Two would soon be three

F

I smoked an endless burning chain

Bb

Of bitter cigarettes

C7

I must have walked a thousand miles

Bb F

With fear in every step

F

Two long days and two long nights

Bb

That I refused to sleep

C7

And they were losing hope

F

That we'd be three

F#

The preacher came, the doctor came

B

And said I must be brave

C7#

I remember saying

B F

It was more than I could take

F#

Now what's the world to do with

B

Any crazy man like me

C7#

A lonely one who wanted

B C#7 F#

To be three
