haggard merle shopping for dresses

#


song name: Shopping for dresses 
songwriter: Jimmie Dickens/Merle Haggar 
 
        Shopping for Dresses 
 
   D                                                 G 
Down through the ages men have died for there women 
                    D                          A 
and they've done so, so many times. 
           D                         G 
But each time I loved one, I always lost one  
            D                              A              D 
and I guess the right one is so hard to find. 
 
 
chorus: 
D                                                   G 
So I'm shopping for dresses with no one to wear them 
      D                                             A 
one in each color and one in each style. 
           D                                G 
Maybe someday I'll find me a lady to wear them 
              D                         A               D 
and my shopping will be done for a while 
 
 
D                                        G                                   
I bet somewhere a lady is shopping for britches 
        D                                                       A 
comparing the value and appraising each pair. 
              D                                      G    
Maybe someday the good Lord will get us together 
            D                     A                         D   
and we'll both have a new wardrobe to wear.   TO   CHORUS
