Keith plays the song finger picking, but you can strum or finger pick. I think I may have missed a few
chords but this is close enough
[Intro]
E F#m A E
[Verse 1]
E
Well I ain't proud of what I'm about to do
F#m
All alone up here with you
F#m
With the picture of your man
A E
Face down upon the night stand, so he can't see
And I don't like running all the red lights here
F#m
Every time the coast is clear
F#m
Any time you need my lovin'
A E
You know I'll come running, faithfully
[Chorus]
G#m A E
Cause he stays so busy with his money
G#m A E
And you, you get so lonely when he's gone
G#m A E
And me, I'm just your temporary lover
F#m
'Til your blues are gone
A F#m E
I'm the man of the house whenever he ain't home
[Verse 2]
E
Now the statues on the side of that big gate
F#m
They're laughing as I drive away
A
And I can't keep from thinking
E
Are they laughing at your old man or at me
And the only part that I don't like to play
F#m
Is the part when I get up and go away
I find it mighty hard
A E
Just keeping this old heart tucked away
[Chorus]
G#m A E
Cause he stays so busy with his money
G#m A E
And you, you get so lonely when he's gone
G#m A E
And me, I'm just your temporary lover
F#m
'Til your blues are gone
A F#m E
I'm the man of the house whenever he ain't home
E F#m
I'm the man of the house
A E
When your other man ain't home
E F#m
I'm the man of the house
A E
When your other man ain't home
E F#m
I'm the man of the house
A E
When your other man ain't home
E F#m
I'm the man of the house
A E
When your other man ain't home
