[Intro 1]
[Am][C][D][Esus4][Am][G#aug][C][D][Esus4]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Read your note this mornin'
[G#aug]'Bye- bye girl'[G], that's all it said[Esus4]
[Am]Glad I found it firs[G#aug]t
Before [G]the kids got out [Esus4]of bed

[Verse 2]
[A]Baked a tray of muffins
Hung some [Dm]wet- wash out to dry
[G]By the time the kids got [Am]up
I could [Esus4]look them in the eye

[Verse 3]
[A]You've gone away,
you've [Am]gone [Dsus4]away
[G]How will I get [F#m]though [B]the day?
This [E]god- forsaken day
[Am]

[Verse 4]
Drank some bitter coffee
[G#aug]Read your note ten [C]times or more[Esus4]
[Am]When I'd washed the dishes twice
[G#aug]I got down an[C]d scrubbed the flo[Esus4]or

[Verse 5]
[A]Empty chair at supper
Every[Dm]bodys actin' strange
[Am]Food just gettin' cold
Kids real [Esus4]quiet for a change

[Verse 6]
You've [A]gone away,
you've [Am]gone [Dsus4]away
[G]How will I get [F#m]through [B]the day?
This [E]god- forsaken day

[Verse 7]
[Am]Rain was fallin' hard
[G#aug]As I walked slowly up[C] the stair[D]s[Esus4]
[Am]Pushed my tears back down[G#aug]
As I stood listenin'
[C]To their pra[Esus4]yers

[Verse 8]
[A]There's your empty pillow
[Am]Your side's flat[Dm] right to the wall
Now's [G]the time for private cry[Am]in'
Now it [Esus4]hurts me
Most of all

[Verse 9]
You've [A]gone away
I turn [Am]off t[Dsus4]he light
[G]How will I get [F#m]through the [B]night?
This [E]god- forsaken [E]night
[B]This lon[Em]g and lonesome God- forsaken night
