Verse 1:
N.C.
Bobby works on weekends
N.C.
And he's got a good hand
       F
But he never keeps his promises



F                                    C
And I'm getting pretty tired of staying up
C
In the middle night
C
I smell the guilt on him
C/G  F
As he smothers me with buffers
F                                          C
And his winter coat that he just won't take off

Verse 2:
C
Bobby where are you going?
C
I've work first thing in the morning
C/G     F
But he didn't bother answering
F                            C
Just turned and headed for the door
C
Under my bed
C
I keep a steak knife
C/G    F                                                                G
These kids broke in six months ago I guess it made me feel a little bold

Chorus:
G   F
Your leaving
G        F
Made me so uneasy
F                   G
But I should learn to love myself
C                C/G  F
Without a reason or a doubt
F                    G           C
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out

Verse 3:
C
I didn't do it gently
C
Lord knows the man is heavy
C/G   F
But I think I hit an artery
F
So he never came to get me
C
Watching him slip (watching him go down)
C
Got pretty tiresome

F
So I sat down and watched TV
F
As he finished ruining my mother's carpet
C
Bobby look (Bobby look
Bobby look)
C
It's the show we like
F                                     F               G
But you stopped coming home on weekdays I sat alone here every night

Chorus:
  F
Oh baby
G           F
I see pretty clearly
F                   G
But I should learn to love myself
C             C/G    F
Without a reason or a doubt
F                    G           C
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
F                   G
But I should learn to love myself
C             C/G      F
Without a reason or a doubt
F                    G           C
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
F                    G           C
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out
F                    G           C
And he's always coming in as I'm checking out

Outro:
F                      G
There's nothing like the rain
C                 F
To wash the blood away
F                   G
And all those old mistakes
C                 F
Baby they burn with you today
F                      G
There's nothing like the rain
C                 F
To wash the blood away
F                G
And all those old mistakes
C                 F
Baby they burn with you today
