The Day She Got Divorced chords by Reba McEntire

Verse 1:

N.C.                   C7
She got up and put her makeup on

Made a pot of coffee extra strong

                                         F
At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette

                    C7
Read the paper in a cloud of smoke

While the dirty dinner dishes soaked

                                        F
Woke up the kids and coaxed 'em out of bed

         G                                    F
Then she burnt the toast just like the day before

     N.C.             C7
The day she got divorced

Verse 2:

N.C.                   C7
Left the kids with the girl next door

Parked her car at the county court

                                                       F
Around and around about the child support he'll never pay

                                C7
The judge said, "We're going to have to start

Without the party of the second part"

                                            F
'Cause the party of the second part was M.I.A.

       G                                  F
He was gettin' drunk just like the day before

The day she got divorced

          Em7
It didn't feel any different than it ever has

She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad

         Em7                                F
Couldn't love him any less or hate him any more

N.C.                    C7
Wasn't workin', had the whole day off

Bought a bottle, then she called her boss

Waited for him at the motel lot until he got there

                           C7
First he told her that her hair looked nice

Promised he was gonna leave his wife

                                     F
Yeah, two more lies but she didn't care

              G                            F
'Cause it was just like every other day before

Kids are yakking with their hungry mouths

Dog scratching, laying on the couch

Think she really ought to clean this house but what the hell

            G                           F
'Cause it's just as dirty as the day before
