I used to work all week in a factory nine to four
I used to give that old woman all my money
D7 G7
But I wouldn?t give her the time of day anymore
C
Cause I got tired of coming home tired
F
And always a finding her gone
C
So now you can find me down on the corner
G7 C
At a bar called Kelly?s getting stoned
F C
I got tired of eating supper that was cold and made the day before
F C
I got tired of wading through last weeks junk on the floor
D7 G7
And when I did find her home I?d find her laying in bed
F G7
Wanting to fuss and hollering loud enough to wake the dead
C
So I left her screaming about a week ago
F
Went and found a brand new home
C
So now you can find me down on the corner
G7 C
At a bar called Kelly?s getting stoned
