Sometimes that's [C] how it goes [F] Remember no [G] one's perfect [C] [Am] Every kid has faults [F] Remember, [G] it's the thought that [C] counts more than [Am] the results. [F] My heart [G] was in the right [C] place Even though [G] I did [Am] it wrong. [F] It was all to [G] say on Mother's [F] Day. My [C] love for you is strong Your car shiny inside and out [F] with lots of [C] olive oil Who knew that oatmeal [G] splatters up so high and far on boil? [C] I tried to make you orange juice, [F] but I spilled it on [C] the floor. I tried to fry you [G] bacon We don't have a [C] stove no more Since you can't really cook this week. [F] I called the pizza [C] place. I emptied out the [G] fridge and freezer. So there's enough space [C] They should be here anytime [F] two dozen pizza [C] pies. I paid with your [G] credit card. I hope that [C] you're surprised [F] Remember no [G] one's perfect [C] Every kid [Am] has faults [F] Remember [G] it's the thought that [C] counts more than [Am] the results [F] My heart [G] was in the right place.
