Originally in E, I play in D

DWednesday Ammorning at Em7five o’clock as the Bm7day beginsE7

A9Silently closing her A7bedroom door

A9Leaving the note that she A7hoped would say more

She goes DdownAmstairs to the Em7kitchen clutching

Her Bm7handkerchiefE7

A9Quietly turning the A7backdoor key, A9stepping outside

She is A7free

DShe (we gave her most of our lives)

Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)

Home (we gave her Ameverything money could Bm7buy)

She’s leaving home after E7living alone

For Bm7so many years E7

DFather Amsnores as his Em7wife gets into her Bm7dressing gownE7

A9Picks up the letter that’s A7lying there

A9Standing alone at the A7top of the stairs

She breaks Ddown and Amcries to her Em7husband

Daddy, our Bm7baby’s goneE7

A9Why would she treat us so A7thoughtlessly?

A9How could she do this to A7me?

DShe (we never thought of ourselves)
