[Strophe]
D                A               G                  A 
He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants 
D                 A               G            A 
Three car garage, her own credit cards 
   G                A           D               G 
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight 
G                D                   A 
If he could only read her mind she'd say
[Refrain]
A        D                  Bm 
Buy me a rose, call me from work 
       G                         A 
Open a door for me what would it hurt 
            D                            G 
Show me you love me by that look in your eye 
D                    A                            D 
These are the little things I need the most in my life
[Strophe]
D                A               G                  A 
Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone 
D                 A               G            A 
She can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong 
   G                A           D               G 
Lately she'd try anything to turn his head 
G                D                   A 
Would it make a difference if she'd said
[Refrain]
A        D                  Bm 
Buy me a rose, call me from work 
       G                         A 
Open a door for me what would it hurt 
            D                            G 
Show me you love me by that look in your eye 
D                    A                            D 
These are the little things I need the most in my life
[Pont]
        G                       A 
And the more that he lives, the less that he tries 
   G                      A 
To show her the love that he holds inside 
        G                        A 
And the more that she gives, the more that he sees 
G                          A 
This is a story of you and me 
     A            D                         Bm 
So I bought you a rose on the way home from work 
            G                      A 
To open the door to a heart that I hurt 
               D                       G 
And I hope you noticed this look in my eye 
D                           A                          D 
Cause I'm gonna make things right for the rest of your life 
D                A 
The rest of your life 
    G 
And I'm gonna hold you tonight 
D                    A                           D 
Do all those little things for the rest of your life
