C                          G 
Postman delivered        a past due bill notice 
F                      C         G 
 The alarm clock rang 2 hours   late 
C                               G 
 The garbage man left all the   trash on the sidewalk 
F                   C            G 
 & the hinges fell off of the   gate 
F                  C         F                   C 
 This mornin' at breakfast, I spilled all the coffee 
        C                G              Am 
I       opened the      door on my      knee 
        F                         C                   Am 
The     last thing I needed      first thing this mornin' 
        G       G7      C 
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' 
   C                   G          Am 
'Cause your love makes my life complete 
F                        C                    Am 
The last thing I needed first thing this morning' 
G                           C 
Was to have you walk out on me

        F                                      C 
So ex   cuse me for lookin' like my world just ended 
        F                                      C 
Ex      cuse me for lookin' like I just lost my best friend 
        F 
Ex      cuse me for livin' & be forgivin' 
                       C 
Just go on if you wanna be      free 
        F                              C                      Am 
But the         last thing I needed      first thing this mornin' 
        G       G7      C 
Was to  have you walk   out on  me
