FOUR LEAF CLOVER

By Overnight Jones
(ex The Warner Brothers)
-----------------

INTRO  G D Em  G D C

  G
I went around to the house
D               C
seems like she had a whole new bunch of friends
              G                       D
I said "I'll take some of this stuff with me now
              C
and come and pick up the rest on the weekend"
             G                  D
One of the new friends followed me down the hall
             C
and pull me up just inside the front door and said
 G                       D
"Take all that you can carry now,
             C
she dosn't want you coming here anymore"

REPEAT INTRO BETWEEN VERSES

I thought to myself that's the way you get treated
when all I did was fall out of love
Like the new friend was hopeing, not just for herself
that I left before push came to shove
I had to leave behind half of my clothes
I had to leave behind my favorite chair
So I took all my records and half of hers
Nicked forty bucks and got the hell out of there

Then I caught her eye, as I was walking out
she was the only thing I ever cared about
she was just muttering, and laughing about something
I was so keyed up I couldn't work it out
I was at a loss, over what to do
I had a whole lot of plans, now it was over
Thinking to myself maybe move out of town
spend my time looking for a four leaf clover
