♫ Intro:

| G+G | G+G |


♫ Verse 1:
     G+G           C majorC
You're asleep on the couch with Tammy
     D MajorD           G+G
And she looks straight up at me
               C majorC
The reproach in her eyes is imagined
     D MajorD            G+G
But the pain that I feel is real
      E minorEm          D MajorD
She jumps down and her tail is swishing
    C majorC      A minorAm      D MajorD
Like a feather right under your nose
       E minorEm  C majorC       D MajorD  G+G
And then you wake up and you're bleary-eyed
D/F#D/F#    C majorC       D MajorD    G+G
I say "I'm sorry"
I can see you cried

♫ Verse 2:
      G+G            C majorC
You look frail as you stand before me
     D MajorD         G+G
Then you curse and kick a chair
                    C majorC
And the dog, bless her heart, licks my fingers
     D MajorD           G+G
But she jerks every time you swear
    E minorEm           D MajorD
I feel sick and my hands arе shakin'
     C majorC      A minorAm     D MajorD
This is how all our fights have begun
        E minorEm  C majorC     D MajorD        G+G
You say you've had it, and you say "Scrеw you!"
D/F#D/F#   C majorC         D MajorD     G+G
I say "I love you", and I know it's true


♫ Chorus:
C majorC             G+G
 You're not the man you should have been
D MajorD          G+G
 I let you down somehow (Not the one I could've been)
C majorC           G+G
 I'm not the woman I could have been (I can be that woman)
D MajorD             G+G
 But I can be that woman now

♫ Verse 3:
      G+G              C majorC
You're confused when you turn to face me
    D MajorD       G+G
Is it true or is she drunk?
                   C majorC
But it's clear that I've hit my rock bottom
   D MajorD          G+G
I'm aware of how far I've sunk
     E minorEm         D MajorD
And the dog is the first to feel it
      C majorC     A minorAm     G+G
There's a shimmer of hope in your eyes
       E minorEm   D MajorD       C majorC    G+G
You can't believe it, but you're close to tears
D/F#D/F#    C majorC       D MajorD    G+G
Oh but I'm sorry for the wasted years


♫ Chorus:
               C majorC             G+G
(Not the one I could've been) You're not the man you should have been
        D MajorD          G+G
(I let you down) I let you down somehow
               C majorC           G+G
(Not the one I could've been) I'm not the woman I could have been
           D MajorD             G+G
(I can be that woman) But I can be that woman now
