Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

You don't need to have a set pattern for these, just play them whenever you think

they'll fit.

I hear she got a man and he gotta little money

And I know that ain't why she calls him honey

But it might be

It might be

I'm smart enough to know that a woman so free

Ain't lyin' awake at night thinkin' of me

Oh no but she might be

She might be

Waitin' for the day she can come back home

Word on the street is he ain't no joke

A bonafied G.I. Joe

Nothin' like me

Nothin' like me

His hands are bloody but they ain't sore

From puttin' holes in closet doors

Cause he can't breathe

He can't breathe

He ain't waitin' for the day that she'll come back home

Before the chorus ("What's the hurry Momma?"), While still on the G chord, Chris

plays a sort of run on the bass notes transitioning to the Am:

Then start playing the chorus:

What's the hurry Momma?

Take your time when you're breakin' my heart and

You're barely outta sight

And now you say I gotta brand new start and

And I've been near and far

Everywhere it's the same old blues

The hardest part of sorrow

Is knowin' she ain't feelin' it too

Oh no but she might be

Yeah she might be...

I've never been much on speakin' the truth

Just your everyday undereloquent fool

But I can't lie

I can't lie

Need you to stay but you're already gone

My own ghost of Christmas wrongs

But I'm still here

I'm still here

Still waitin' for the day that she'll change her mind

I ain't no stranger to the dangers of lust

Givin' in and givin' up

They know me so well

So well

I know he's all that she could need but the

Best thing is he isn't me

And its a damn shame

A damn shame

I'm waitin for the day that she'll change her mind

What's the hurry Momma?

Take your time when you're breakin' my heart and

You're barely outta sight

And now you say I gotta brand new start and

And I've been near and far

Everywhere it's the same old blues

The hardest part of sorrow

Is knowin' she ain't feelin' it too

Oh no but she might be

Yeah she might be...

I'm smart enough to know that a woman so free

Ain't lyin' awake at night thinkin' of me

Oh no but she might be...
