Verse 1
A
D
Last night, as I got home
A
about a half past ten

There was the woman I thought I knew

I kept my cool, I ain't no fool
A
Let me tell ya what happened then
D
I packed some clothes and I walked out
A
And I ain't goin' back again

A
G
So, take a letter, Maria, address it to my wife
D
Say I won't be coming home,
A
gotta start a new life

Oh, take a letter Maria, address it to my wife
D
Send a copy to my lawyer,
A
gotta start a new life
Verse 2
A
You've been many things,
D
A
but most of all a good secretary to me
And it's times like this,

I feel you've always been close to me

Was I wrong to work nights
A
to try to build a good life
D
All work and no play
A
has just cost me a wife

When a man loves a woman,

it's hard to understand

how sweet you are to me

It just so happens I'm free tonight
A
Would you like to have dinner with me?
