Just a song from something my wife says to me from time to time. It's meant to be funny not dark so I hope you all get that.
I Think It’s Only Fair that I Die First by Jeff Gilpin
May 1, 2007
Verse 1
[D]I am [C]often too [G]irrita[D]ting
I’m [D]all the time [C]getting on [G]your [A]nerves
Yet you [D]find it in your [C]heart to tole[G]rate [D]me
You [C]treat me much [G]better than I de[A]serve[D]
Yeah, you’ve [G]put up with me [D]all these years
[G]Even when I was at my [C]worst[A]
You’re [G]fit as a fiddle and [D]I like drinking [G]beers
So I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [D]first
Verse 2
[D]You are [C]much more [G]orga[D]nized
[D]I am a [C]lot more [G]scat[A]tered
[D]You help [C]keep us [G]econo[D]mized
Yet to [C]me it’s relax[G]ation that [A]mat[D]ters
[G]Lord knows I’ve tried to [D]change my ways
Your [G]help has been a blessing and a [C]curse[A]
You’ll [G]try and keep me at it until my [D]end of my [G]days
So I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [D]first
Break
[C]Anyway you’re way much [A]cuter
It’d be [G]easier for you to get re[D]hitched
[C]Besides its true, I don’t know [G]what the hell I’d do
[A]If some how the situation [G]switched
Verse 3
[D]I guess I’d [C]spend my [G]days in a [D]funk
[D]Unable to [C]get you [G]off my [A]mind
The [D]house would [C]surely [G]fill with lots of [D]junk
And I [C]bet the neighbors [G]won’t be very [A]kind[D]
[G]I couldn’t tell right from wrong [D]without you
If [G]I’d get sick I’d have to hire a [C]nurse[A] oh lord
[G]Life would all be blue, I don’t [D]know what I’d [G]do
So I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [D]first
Break 2
[C]Besides you’d be having tons of [A]fun
Without the [G]old ball and chain on your [D]mind
You’d be [C]playing in the sun, [G]always on the run
Just the [A]having the best time, [G]won’t that be fine
Verse 4
So [D]if this [C]topic [G]comes up a[D]gain
That [D]you prefer to [C]leave be[G]fore I[A]
Rest as[D]sured it’s an [C]argument [G]I would [D]win
So there [C]is no [G]reason that you should [A]try[D]
[G]Forget about it, because you know it’s [D]years away
This [G]isn’t something that we need re[C]hearse[A]
I [G]love you more, and you let me so un[D]til that fateful [G]day
I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [D]first
Yeah I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [D]first
Said I [C]think it’s only [G]fair that I die [A]first
[D] [D] [C#] [D] [F] [E] [E] [G] [G] [A] [D7]
