The Day She Got Divorced

                                         F
At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette
                    C7
Read the paper in a cloud of smoke

While the dirty dinner dishes soaked
                                        F
Woke up the kids and coaxed 'em out of bed
         G                                    F
Then she burnt the toast just like the day before
     N.C.             C7
The day she got divorced

[Verse 2]
N.C.                   C7
Left the kids with the girl next door

Parked her car at the county court
                                                       F
Around and around about the child support he'll never pay
                                C7
The judge said, "We're going to have to start

Without the party of the second part"
                                            F
'Cause the party of the second part was M.I.A.
       G                                  F
He was gettin' drunk just like the day before
     N.C.             C7
The day she got divorced

[Bridge]
          Em7
It didn't feel any different than it ever has
       F
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
         Em7                                F
Couldn't love him any less or hate him any more
                      C7
The day she got divorced

[Verse 3]
N.C.                    C7
Wasn't workin', had the whole day off

Bought a bottle, then she called her boss
                                               F
Waited for him at the motel lot until he got there
                           C7
First he told her that her hair looked nice

Promised he was gonna leave his wife
                                     F
Yeah, two more lies but she didn't care
              G                            F
'Cause it was just like every other day before
                      C7
The day she got divorced

[Bridge]
          Em7
It didn't feel any different than it ever had
       F
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
         Em7                                F
Couldn't love him any less or hate him any more
                      C7
The day she got divorced

[Interlude]
C7  F

[Verse 4]
     N.C.                   C7
Kids are yakking with their hungry mouths

Dog scratching, laying on the couch
                                                         F
Think she really ought to clean this house but what the hell
            G                           F
'Cause it's just as dirty as the day before

[Outro]
C7                         C7
     Yeah, she's divorced
