(G)I hollered Hey! honey I'm home,Like I(C)do every day at(G)four. 
(F)but the tv aint on,and the car is gone,(G)she must be at the(C)store. 
Then I(C)spied this piece of paper,looked like a(Bb)list of things to(G)do. 
But when(F)i got down to(D)number six I(A7)realized we were(C)through. 


CHORUS -----------------------------------------
One (F)The plumber couldn,t make it today 
Two(Bb)I decided that I'm goin' away. 
three(F)the dogs at the vet the(D)hearing is set. 
Do you see(G)what i'm trying to(C)say? 
Four(F)don't forget to take out the trash. 
Five(Bb)I'm sorry but i ain't comin' back. 
(F)You can tell by the stroke,what she really(D)wrote, 
Now(G)Ain't that a hell of a(C)note.

(2)(same pattern) 
I just stood there and scratched my head,looked for teardrops on the floor. 
But not even a tear after all these years,I expected a little bit more. 
I was plannin' on grabbin' a nice cold beer, and pitchen out on the couch. 
But she went by the numbers and i got counted out.
