& the hinges fell off of the gate

This mornin' at breakfast, I spilled all the coffee

I opened the door on my knee
F                          C             Am
The last thing I needed first thing this mornin'

Was to have you walk out on me

C                                G
Last night you came home late & I knew you'd been drinkin'
F                    C          G
By that old mellow look on your face
C                                             G          
But I thought, It don't matter 'cause it's the Holiday season
F                 C          G
& you fill such a big empty space
F             C           F              C 
& I lay down beside you & I wanted your lovin'

'Cause your love makes my life complete
F                          C            Am
The last thing I needed first thing this mornin'

Was to have you walk    out on  me

Just go on if you wanna be free
 F                              C      Am
But the last thing I needed  first thing this mornin'
G                               C
Was to  have you walk   out on  me
