This morning at breakfeast I spilled all the coffee 
  D          F#m        Bm 
I opened the door on my knee 
    G                       D                Bm

Last night you came home late 
      A 
And I knew you'd been drinking

               A   
Since it's the holiday season 
        G           G/F#       A 
And you fill such a big empty space 
       G            G/F# 
And I layed down beside you 
      Em 
And I wanted your love 
           D          F#m     Bm 
Cause your love makes my life complete 
    G                       D                Bm

G              G/F#   G                         D 
Excuse me for looking like I just lost my best friend 
G             G/F#             G 
Excuse me for living and being forgiving 
                          D  F#m Bm 
Just go if you want to be free
