I started writing this in 2014. As short as it is and with this few of words, you would think it would have come out faster. Originally, I imagined it being sung by Garrison Keillor on Prairie Home Companion (pre-retirement and #MeToo news). Now I'm not so sure he is the right guy for the song.
I played it on a ukulele at a sing around last week. I have recording equipment at home but I'm not real confident in it's usage.
Verse 1
(I) After you Please let me get the door
(IV) After you I haven’t seen you here before
(I) It’s the polite thing to do
(V7) After you (I IV I V7)
Verse 2
(I) After you It's just a courtesy
(IV) After you And It just occurred to me
(I) That I like your attitude
(V7) Think I’ll be after you (walkup)
Bridge
(IV) I come here often ‘Bout once a week
(I) To get my errands run
(IV) Love has always been on my list
(V7) But now I know my shopping is done
Verse 3
(I) After you Took my arm
(IV) After you Said “I’m Charmed”
(I) In that moment I knew
There would (V7) be no one after you (I IV I V7)
Instrumental then repeat Bridge and Verse 3
