[Dm] [Ab]
It is 4 a [Dm] .m.
[Ab]
And I'm waiting in the open
[G] [Ab]
[Gm] Dreaming of [Cm] your [Dm] grace
[Ab] [Cm]
Wishing you would come back [Bb] [Ab] home
But you don't come and you don't come and [Dm] you don't [Ab] say that you miss me
[Dm] [Cm] Oh
And you don't stop on your way back [Dm] to say [D] hi
[Ab]
It [Cm]
[Gm] [Ab]
is 5 a [Dm].m. [Ab]
And I'm waiting by [Fm] the [Cm] phone
[Dm] [Ab] This is not how it's [Dm] supposed to [Ab] be
You're supposed to be [Bb] here with [Gm] me
[A] But you're gone [C] now, you're just gone [Bb] now
You don't [E] even think about the way I
[Gm] feel
[Cm] Cause you're gone [C] now, you're just gone [D]
[Gm] now
When I know you should [D] be right [Cm]
[Bb] here
[Ab]
It's 6 o'clock in the [Gm] morning
[Ab]
And I'm so tired of [Dm] yawning
[Ab]
I'm miserable and [Eb] feel [Dm] it bloom
[D] Cause [Ab] all I really want is [Dm] you
[Fm] [Ab] But you don't come and you don't come and [Dm] you don't [Ab] say that you miss me
[Bb] [Cm] Oh
And you don't stop on your way back [Dm] to say [Ab] hi
I'm [Cm] feeling crazy
[Dm] [Ab]
It's 7 o'clock in the [Gm] a.m.
[Ab]
In 15 minutes this alarm will [G] be [Cm] ringing
[G]
At work no one will feel [Bb] my [Cm] pain
It's a grind away
[Dm] Thanksgiving
[Cm]
[Ab] And I'm awake now
[Dm] [Ab] But I'm a strong face
At work yet no [Cm] one will [Dm] hear me
You [Ab] have managed [Gm]
to [Ab] turn me from a woman of [Dm] substance
[Ab] Into a brick flying
[Dm] Calling [Cm] you damn much
Crying and crying
[Dm] [Ab] Flying way down down low with flat song
[Dm] [Ab] From the opposite side of bar
[Cm] Easy [Dm] lock [Ab] loaded on the top of your car [Fm] Check
[Gm]
[D] I never intended to be [G] this [Ab] gyp
[D] Groping and smoking for her [Ab] money
Or the readily dissolving remnants of it
[Dm] [Ab] After being chased
[Cm] I've been dismissed
[Dm] [Ab] As just an object
Something to play [Gm] with
[F] [Ab] You have managed to turn me [Bb] from a woman [Dm] of [Ab] substance
To [E] death
