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
I s[A]peak because I can
To [G]anyone I trust enough to [D]listen
You [A]speak because you can
To [G]anyone Who'll hear what you [D]say
hmmm[Gb]-mm
I swear it was [G]not my choice[D]
hmmm[Gb]-mm
I Used to [G]be so kind[D]
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
I'm [G]Floored by your s[D]ound
I'm [G]Floored by your s[D]ound
hmmm[Gb]-m
I swear it was [G]not my choice[D]
[Gb]to reach out to [G]someone wise[D]
[Gb]I used to [G]be so kind[D]
[Gb]I used to [G]be so kind[D]
At the [A]breaking of the morning you'll be [G]dancing on my soft [D]lawn
when you're s[A]haking out the anger that s[G]tops you from taking my c[D]alls
[A] [G]
whe[D]n you're running up the highway singing I'm the king, the king of you all
and you [A]look back to where you started, I[G]'ll be there waving you [D]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.
