The Ideal Husband from I Love You, Honeybear (2015) Based on this performance: [Intro] E G A Am [Verse 1]
E G A Am                E G A Am
Julian is gonna take my files

C
Every woman that I’ve slept with,

A                Am
every friendship I’ve neglected,

C                
didn’t call when grandma died,

A                Am          
I spent my money getting drunk and high

C
I’ve done things unprotected,

A              Am
proceeded to drive home wasted,

C
bought things to win over siblings -

A                Am                 C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things
[Chorus]
A        Am        C
and now, now it’s out
There!
A       Am
and now, now it’s out
E G A Am (x2) [Verse 2]
E G A Am                E G A Am
Julian, he’s gonna take my files

C
Telling people jokes to shut them up,

A           Am
resenting people that I love,

C
sleep in til two then doing shit,

A            Am
just stay in bed and later lie about it,

C
obsessing over graying hair,

A                 Am
knowing just what people wanna hear,

C
binging on unearned attention -

A               Am                   C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things

A        Am       C       
and now, now it’s out
There! [Chorus]
A        Am       C
and now, now it’s out
[Verse 3]
C
I came by at seven in the morning

A                     Am
seven in the morning, seven in the morning

C
I came by at seven in the morning

A                  Am
I said, baby, I’m finally succumbing

C
said something dumb like I’m tired of running

A                 Am
tired of running, tired of running

C                 
Let’s put a baby in the oven -

A                    Am
wouldn’t I make the ideal husband?
E G A Am (x4) End on E
