But this time there's a twist
 

                           A7                D7
I woke up to an empty room devoid of joy and bliss
 
G                                        C            G
I know I don't deserve no sympathy but I think it's a sin
 
C       G       D7     G

Like Thelma and Louise they took off in the dead of the night
 
                                A7           D7
In a ninety one suburban with a loaded forty-five
 
G                              C             G
Well I called up the authority where would I begin
 
C       G       D7     G
My wife left me for my girlfriend
 
 
            C                       G
She was the sweetest thing on earth always so true
 
                            A7               D7
She loved me with a passion yeah my wife did too
 
G                                          C                 G

G                                        A7                 D7
And in the battle of the sexes the lines have surely gotten blurred
 
G                                   C              G
But I just want the both of them to come back home again
