Bm (x24432@1)       EmWhere (022000@1)is she

Am (x02210@1)         
When the little thing cries?

D (xx0232@1)        BmShe (x24432@1)lies in a bed

Em (022000@1)              
With a friend of mine.

Bm (x24432@1)        EmBut (022000@1)some nights

Am (x02210@1)                 
She'll run back in fright

D (xx0232@1)           BmIf (x24432@1)she picks on a dick

Em (022000@1)              
That's too big for her pride.

Am (x02210@1)   BmOh! (x24432@1)    Oh!

C (x32010@1)           Em (022000@1)      AmWhy (x02210@1)did I ever go marry her?

Bm (x24432@1)     EmI (022000@1)was a child!

G (320003@1)            DmI'm (xx0231@1)holding the baby,

G (320003@1)             DmShe's (xx0231@1)ran-tanning constantly.

C (x32010@1)               Bm (x24432@1)          EmShe (022000@1)saw me coming for miles.

C (x32010@1)   Bm (x24432@1)     EmShe (022000@1)saw me open wide.

(Repeat verse)
Four o'clock
And the key's in the lock.
And she's been on the wink
And she's stinking of drink.
Wakes the kid,
So I put him to sleep,
And she's in there all night,
Doubled over the sink.

Oh! Oh!
Why did I ever go marry her?
I was a child!
I'm holding the baby,
She's ran-tanning constantly.

C (x32010@1)                Bm (x24432@1)         EmShe (022000@1)saw me coming for miles.

C (x32010@1)   Bm (x24432@1)     EmShe (022000@1)saw me open wide.

C (x32010@1)   Bm (x24432@1)   Em (022000@1)               Open wide.
