Verse 1
D 
G 
C 
G 
A  pillow, radio, and magazine
C 
G 
Is all the comfort I had to go to sleep
C 
Tears rolling from my eyes

down my cheek
C 
Hold your pajamas in my arms,
G 
pretend you're here with me

When a stone is cast into the water
C

You don't expect to see it again

more of me living
G 
C 
D 
G 
And less of me coming home
They say absence makes
the heart grow fonder
Well it does for somebody else
A woman needs her man all the time
Not part of the time
You know understanding is the
greatest thing in the world
But misunderstanding is a drag
And our life has been nothing but
a series of misunderstandings
I misunderstand why
your money is always short
and the bills are never paid.
I misunderstand why you don't
come home for two or three nights.
I misunderstand why you always
have to relax someplace else.
I misunderstand why you're
always picking a fight with me
when I didn't even ask where you've been.
I misunderstand the lipstick on your shirts,
the bobby pins you leave on the car,
and the phone numbers you
so carelessly leave lying around.
If misunderstanding is a crime
Then I'm guilty, I'm guilty,
E 
I'm guilty, I'm guilty
A 
D 
If life is so good out there on the outside
A 
Then I know you don't mind
D 
A 
me participating
D 
A 
Now it's your turn to sit home and cry
D 
A 
Wait, wait
G 
A 
I'm tired being the model woman
G 
It only means that you live
A 
your life alone
