[A]
Last night [D] as I got home about a [A] half past ten
There was a [D] woman I thought I knew in the arms of [A] another man
I kept my [D] cool, I ain't no fool, let me tell you what [A] happened then
I packed some [D] clothes and I walked out and I ain't going [A] back again
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] Say I won't be coming home, [A] gotta start a new life
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] Send a copy to my lawyer, [A] gotta start a new life
You've been many things [D] but most of all a good secretary [A] to me
And it's times like this [D] I feel you've always been close [A] to me
Was I wrong [D] to work nights, to try to build [A] a good life
All work [D] and no play has just cost me [A] a while
So take a letter, Maria, address [G] it to my wife
[D] Say I won't be coming home, [A] gotta start a new life
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] Send a copy to my lawyer, [A] gotta start a new life
What a man loves [D] a woman, it's hard to [A] understand
But she would find [D] more pleasure in the [A] arms of another man
I never [D] really noticed how sweet you are to [A] me
It just so [D] happens I'm free tonight, would you like to have dinner [A] with me
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] Say I won't be coming home, [A] gotta start a new life
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] Send a copy to my lawyer, [A] gotta start a new life
So take a letter, Maria, [G] address it to my wife
[D] [A]
