 Em7                      A7
Honey, lovin’ you is the greatest thing,
          D               A
I get to be myself and I get to sing,
  Em7                       A7
I get to play at being irresponsible,
   D                  A
I come home late and love your soul,
  Em7              A7
I never forget you in my prayers,
   F#m7                   B7
I never have a bad thing to report.

Chorus:
           Bm
You’re my picture on the wall,
          A#+
You’re my vision in the hall,
           D/A
You’re the one I’m talking to,
       E7/G#
When I get in from my work,
            G                         D
You are my girl, and you don’t even know it,
      G                        D
I am living out the life of a poet,
          G                     D
I am the jester in the ancient courts,
                G                        D   B7
And you’re the funny little frog in my throat.

My eyesight's fading, my hearing's dim
I can't get insured for the state I'm in
I'm a danger to myself, I've been starting fights
At the party at the club on a Saturday night
But I don't get disapproving from my girl
She gets the all highlights wrapped in pearls

Chorus:
You're my picture on the wall
You're my vision in the hall
You're the one I'm talking to
When I get in from my work
You are my girl and you don't even know it
I am livin' out the life of a poet
I am the jester in the ancient court
And you're the funny little frog in my throat

I had a conversation with you at night
It's a little one-sided, but that's alright
I tell you in the kitchen about my day
You sit on the bed in the dark changing places
With the ghost that was there before you came
You've come to save my life again

Chorus:
I don't dare to touch your hand
I don't dare to think of you in a physical way
And I don't know how you smell
You are the cover of my magazine
You're my fashion tip, a living museum
I'd pay to visit you on rainy Sundays
I'll maybe tell you all about it someday
