B
There was a lock on the gate in the front a your house all day

B
Could that have been a hint for me to stay away

D
Is that my name carved on a dead tree in your yard

C#m                                            F#
Why you treatin' me like this, my darlin' Hildegarde?

B
That go home yankee sign on your front door

B
Well I think that, that was a little bit uncalled for

D
And my photo on the birdhouse was a cute gesture

C#m                                                    F#
Of course I got the message but wasn't that a good picture of me

B
My darlin' Hildegarde, please don't be mad

B
I'll give everything you've never had

D
If you'll tear down all those signs and disregard

C#m                                                F#
All those things you think of me, my darlin' Hildegarde
