[Intro] G C G C G D Em Am D [Verse 1]
G
You don't have to say anything

C                               G
But you have got to mean everything

C                               G         D       Em
This woman on my mind, her lies stink the same as mine

Am                                      D
And I don't think I should go home to her

G
Desperate is my plan but hear my plea

C                               G
When the cradle falls from the tree

C                               G      D       Em
If that babe ain't walking, and I have done my talking

Am                              D
Well, I will walk away a free man

G
There's a label on the bottle that I read

C                                    G
But it don't have a thing to do with me

C                                    G        D      Em
I ain't carrying no child, it's only dreams I got inside

Am                                     D
And tonight they're getting drunk with me
[Instrumental] G C G C G D Em Am D [Verse 2]
G
I tried to treat you with respect

C                                  G
Can't you do me one better than neglect?

C                                      G       D       Em
All the time we spent apart, it really made us who we are

Am                              D
You're as lonely as a ghost on Halloween 

G
So you don't have to say anything

C                               G
I know you didn't mean everything

C                                   G       D       Em
Who could I be kidding? I'll always have my mind on quitting

Am                                        D
And I don't think that I'll feel no other way
[Outro] G C G C G D Em Am D G
