Am 
F 
Oh baby, you claim you love me,
Am 
F 
you're leaving but you over so much
Am 
It's simple, pack your shit and say,
F 
keep in touch
Am 
F 
I mean, how long do we have
before this debt is paid?
Am 
Are you paying her off in kindness,
F 
or does this include getting laid?
Am 
F 
You keep saying you'll tell her, but
this just ain't the right time.
Am 
F 
She lost her job, she lost her dog,
the bird died.
Am 
Well, I'm just losing my  mind
F 
For years I refused to date married men
Am 
But now I got you, that's even worse
F 
You got the nerve to tell me you in it for
the money
Dm 
Am 
F 
That bitch barely owns a purse
I mean, every week there's
a new excuse
Am 
She's too up, she's too down,
F 
she's too sad
Well, I'm getting too much,
Am 
F 
too little, too late, so too bad
Dm 
Now, this is not an ultimatum,
it's not about ego
I'm just tired of playing wife and
loss to some lazy broke bitch
Gsus4 
I gotta know
