D                                                  G                       D
   Our little boy is four years and     quite a little man,
                                                            E                                 A
so we spell out the words we don`t     want him to understand.
            D                                  G          D
    Like T.O.Y or maybe S.U.R.P.R.I.S.E
                 G                            D
   but the words we`re hiding from him now
                                  A        D
   tear the heart right out of me.

                                 G                             D
Our D.I.V.O.R.C.E.       becomes final today,
                                E                          A
me and little J.O.E.     will be going away.
   D                                                             G                       D
I love you both and this will be pure H.E.       double L. for me.
           G                            D                  A     D
Oh, I wish that we could stop this D.I.V.O.R.C.E.

D                                                                    G                          D
   Watch him smile, he thinks it`s Christmas,   or his 5th birthday,
                                               E                         A
   and he thinks C.U.S.T.O. D.Y. spells fun or play.
         D                                                    G                                  D
    I spell out all the hurtin` words, and I turn my head when I speak,
              G                      D                                         A                D
    cause I can`t spell away this hurt that`s dripping down my cheek.
