play intro over lines of the verse
D
my husband left me last night
D
left me a poor and lonely wife
D
and I cooked the meals, and he lived the life
D
and now I'm just down for the rest of my time
D
Oh he, Oh me, Oh My
A
I speak because I can
G D
To anyone I trust enough to listen
A
You speak because you can
G D
To anyone Who'll hear what you say
Gb
hmmm-mm
G D
I swear it was not my choice
Gb
hmmm-mm
G D
I 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
G
Graceful sleeper
D
Midnight dreamer
G D
I'm Floored by your sound
G D
I'm Floored by your sound
Gb
hmmm-m
G D
I swear it was not my choice
Gb G D
to reach out to someone wise
Gb G D
I used to be so kind
Gb G D
I used to be so kind
A G D
At the breaking of the morning you'll be dancing on my soft lawn
A G D
when you're shaking out the anger that stops you from taking my calls
A G
D
when you're running up the highway singing I'm the king, the king of you all
A G D
and 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.
