[Verse 1]
    G          B7           C                 G
The walk in is empty on the right side of the bedroom

    C               G            A         D
The drawers and the dressers are empty and bare

         G          B7          C            G
She took all of her records and all the good dishes

        C        G           D            G
There’s hardly a sign that a woman’s been there

             G      B7              C               G
She took the Emmy I bought her, she didn't steal my Nelson

      C            G        A           D
She's sworn off us gingers, so it would seem

      G            B7             C           G
But I bet you good money if she’s runnin with another

   C            G            D           G
He don't hold a flame to the likeness of me
[Instrumental] G B7 C G C G A D G B7 C G C G D G [Verse 2]
          G           B7         C           G
There’s a note on the table, I'm skimming it over

       C          G           A           D
As the rain beats down on the tin roof outside

      G              B7          C              G
And I can’t help but notice that spiteful young woman

    C           G               D           G
Ran out with my clothes left to soak on the line

  C          G            C        G
I don't understand, I'm a likeable man

        C              G          D
How the hell could she leave this behind

        G                B7              C           G
There’s questions big as oceans floatin’ round in my mind

        C          G             D            G
But the one I keep askin’ is the wonderin’ oh why
[Instrumental] G B7 C G C G A D C G C G C G D G [Verse 3]
G             B7              C         G
Ironin’ ain’t called for, and coffee is easy

C            G          A          D
Biscuits are tricky, my cookin’s a crime

    G           B7          C             G
But guitars and women, they come and they leave me

     C         G                D      G
With lovin and six strings I'll surely survive

     C         G                D      G
With lovin and six strings I'll surely survive
