 play intro over lines of the verse


Dmy husband left me last night
Dleft me a poor and lonely wife
Dand I cooked the meals, and he lived the life
Dand now I'm just down for the rest of my time
DOh he, Oh me, Oh My

   AI speak because I can
   G                        DTo anyone I trust enough to listen
    AYou speak because you can
   G                           DTo anyone Who'll hear what you say


    Gbhmmm-mm
               G              DI swear it was not my choice
    Gbhmmm-mm
          G          DI Used to be so kind


Never rode my bike down to the sea
never finished that letter I was writing
never got up and said anything
worthy, for he, oh my

GGraceful sleeper
DMidnight dreamer
    G                DI'm Floored by your sound
    G                DI'm Floored by your sound

    Gbhmmm-m
               G             DI swear it was not my choice
Gb              G            Dto reach out to someone wise
Gb        G         DI used to be so kind
Gb        G         DI used to be so kind


       A                                 G                  DAt the breaking of the morning you'll be dancing on my soft lawn
             A                          G                        Dwhen you're shaking out the anger that stops you from taking my calls
             A                             G                           
   Dwhen you're running up the highway singing I'm the king, the king of you all
        A                                G                       Dand you look back to where you started, I'll be there waving you on


never rode my bike down to the sea
never quite figured out what I believe
never got up and said anything
worthy, for he, oh my.
