_ [Dm] _ _ I just [G] walked in to find you here with that [C] sad look
upon your face.
I should have [F] changed that lock.
I should have [B] made you leave your key.
If I'd [E] have known for just one second,
you'd be back to bother me.
I'm going [Am] out, _ walk out [Dm] the door, just turn [G] around now.
