I love my wife Slow blues in E or D minor for chromatic harp By Chard Chénier I love my wife - she’s the most beautiful woman I know I love my wife - the most beautiful woman I know She’s got a heart of gold: so good for my soul She’s my angel, she’s my guiding light She’s my angel, she’s my guiding light She’s my joy; she’s the nectar of my life When you see my tombstone, please don’t moan If you look down in my grave, I don’t anyone to moan My heart knew Heaven… layin’ in her arms I love my wife - she’s the most beautiful woman I know I love my wife - the most beautiful woman I know She’s got a heart of gold: so good for my soul Written by Richard (Chard) Chénier Copyright July 7, 2017

about

I am a painter (www.chardart.com) who loves to sing and play the harmonica. On my album, Notes from Above, I sing twice. This is a mostly instrumental album highlighting my harmonica stylings - mostly blues, jazzy blues + soundtrack cuts. The first song (Track 2) I wrote and sing for my wife, entitled: I Love my Wife. The second song is traditional: The House of the Rising Sun.
