INTRO: E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
VERSE:
E MajorE
The postman delivered
BB
A augmentedA "past due" bill notice
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
The alarm clock rang two hours late
E MajorE BB
The garbage man left all the trash
BB
On the sidewalk
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
And the hinges fell off of the gate
A augmentedA E/Ab
And this morning at breakfast
A augmentedA E/Ab
I spilled all the coffee
E MajorE EMaj7Emaj7 C# minorC#m BB
And I opened the door on my knee
CHORUS:
A augmentedA
But the last thing I needed
E MajorE C# minorC#m
The first thing this morning
BB E MajorE
Was to have you walk out on me
INSTRUMENTAL: A augmentedA E MajorE BB E MajorE
CHORUS:
E MajorE
Last night you came home late
BB
And I knew you'd been drinking
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
By that old mellow look on your face
E MajorE
I thought, "It don't matter
BB
Because it's the holiday season"
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
And you fill such a big empty space
A augmentedA E/Ab
But then I laid down beside you
A augmentedA E/Ab
And I wanted your loving
E MajorE EMaj7Emaj7 C# minorC#m BB
Because your love makes my life complete
CHORUS:
A augmentedA
Oh the last thing I needed
E MajorE C# minorC#m
The first thing this morning
BB E MajorE
Was to have you walk out on me
BRIDGE:
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
So excuse me for looking
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
Like my world just ended
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
And excuse me for looking
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
Like I just lost my best friend
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
And excuse me for loving
A augmentedA
And being forgiving
F# minorF#m E MajorE
So just go on if you want to be free
CHORUS:
A augmentedA
But the last thing I needed
E MajorE C# minorC#m
The first thing this morning
BB E MajorE
Was to have you walk out on me
