G                                     C               G
I hollered Hey! honey I'm home,Like I do every day at four.
F                                       G                  C
but the tv aint on,and the car is gone, she must be at the store.
       C                                       Bb                G
Then I spied this piece of paper,looked like a list of things to do.
         F             D            A7               C
But when i got down to number six I realized we were through.

    Bb

      F                       D
three the dogs at the vet the hearing is set.
           G                  C

     F
Four don't forget to take out the trash.
     Bb
Five I'm sorry but i ain't comin' back.
F                                          D
You can tell by the stroke,what she really wrote,
    G                      C     
Now Ain't that a hell of a note. (same pattern)

[Verse]
I just stood there and scratched my head,looked for teardrops on the floor.
But not even a tear after all these years,I expected a little bit more.
I was plannin' on grabbin' a nice cold beer, and pitchen out on the couch.
But she went by the numbers and i got counted out.

[Chorus]
    F
One The plumber couldn,t make it today
    Bb
Two I decided that I'm goin' away.
      F                       D
three the dogs at the vet the hearing is set.
           G                  C
Do you see what i'm trying to say?
     F
Four don't forget to take out the trash.
     Bb
Five I'm sorry but i ain't comin' back.
F                                          D
You can tell by the stroke,what she really wrote,
    G                      C
Now Ain't that a hell of a note.
