Verse 1
G 
At 3 a .m. a station wagon pulls into the driveway,
D 
747 Baker Road.
As usual I'm this one,
pretending I've been sleeping,
but I'm counting off the hours
G 
you've been gone.
Now I know just what you'll answer
in the mornin' when I ask you
How come your weekly
C 
meetin' took so long?
D 
You'll say you know Billy Watkins,
now he and Joe got talkin'
G 
It just took that long to get our business done
C 
I thought the Lion Club was meeting
In the Great Skull Cafeteria
This match broke St.
D 
Gerard's bar and grill
But I'll pretend I didn't see it
Nor the green spots on your sweater
Left there by the cream you met,
G 
she spilled
Well, I already know the answer
And I'm trying hard to hide it
But the smell of booze
D 
and cigarettes is strong
I don't know what you've been doing
I don't think I really want it
But I'd die a little every
G 
night you'd gone
Well, it's not lovin' you been missin'
Cause nobody else could love you
C 
Any better than the girl you got at home
D 
I don't know just how much longer
I can go on without leavin'
G 
But I'll give you every chance before I go
C 
I thought the live club was meeting
In the Grayskull Cafeteria,
D 
this Macbook says Jerry's Bar and Grill
But I'll pretend I didn't see it,
nor the green spots on your sweater
G 
Left there by the green dementia spill
Well, it's not that I don't trust you,
cause I'm trying to believe you
D 
But my imagination's running wild
I can see you with that lover,
and I know that she's your lover
G 
Lately that seems to be in style
But I hope you're at your meeting,
just like you've always told me
If you're not,
C 
you're gonna get yourself a thrill
D 
Cause I'll be sittin' in the shadows,
at a table in the corner
G 
Next Thursday night at Jerry's Bar and Grill
C 
I thought the Lions Club was meeting
In the Great School Cafeteria
This matchbook said Jerry's Warren Grill
D 
But I pretend I didn't see it
Cause the green spot on your sweater
G 
Left that by the green lament she spilled you.
