Out Of Jail

        C/G
        I sat at a bar having a beer
          F        G           C/G
        Tryin' to hold down the stool
        When a stranger walked in - stood there beside me
              F            G           C/G
        And plopped down there like a fool
        He started drinkin' then he started talkin'
                F                G          C/G
        About things that were wrong in his life
             F                    C/G
        The more that i heard the more i believed
                             G           C/G
        The thing that was wrong was his wife

        C/G
        You talk about beauty,when we first met
      F                G          C/G
        She was all a man could desire
        Talk about love,one night with her
      F                      G      C/G
        Would set your very soul on fire
        But loves little flame is out of control
      F                   G          C/G
        About three feet high from behind
      F                                         C/G
        Ever since we've been married,well i've come to believe
                             G            C/G
        That love's for the dumb and the blind

        C/G
        'Cause you talk about ugly,when she gets mad
      F                G             C/G
        She goes from Jekill to Hyde
        She grits her teeth and her eyes roll back
      F                 G      C/G
        And pivot from side to side
        She completely rewrites the whole English language
             F     G             C/G
        Descriptive,four-lettered and loud
              F                         C/G
        Now i can't out think her,but i can sure out drink her
                                   G       C/G
        And that's what i'm doing here now

         F                              C/G
        I've spent seven years with the wrong woman
         F                       C/G
        Seven and going on eight
         F                     C/G
        She spent seven years naggin' and eatin'
                              G
        I'm overwrought and she's overweight
         F             C/G
        If i try leavin' she has me arrested
         F                                     C/G
        And takes her own sweet time gettin' me out
         F                    C/G
        If she ain't number one,she's in the top two
        F                       G      C/G
        Of things that i could live without

         F                    C/G
        Men commit murder and all kinds of mayhem
           F                                 C/G
        In a few years they're back on the streets
         F                   C/G
        Highway robbery and white collar crime
                                           G
        And they laugh at the system they beat
             F                      C/G
        Sometimes i'm tempted - sometimes i'm ashamed
                 F                        C/G
        Of the things that the law will allow
           F                    C/G
        I could have killed her when i first met her
                                  G      C/G
        And i'd have been out of jail by now
           F                    C/G
        I could have killed her when we first met
                                   G      C/G
        And i've have been out of jail by now
