[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G C D G
So you come on home walk through the door
C D Em
She's in the kitchen searching through the drawers
G C D Em
So you stop and watch her and ask what she's looking for
G C D G
She says she's not sure
G C D G
And it gets late and you turn off the lights
C D Em
Her body so close to you in the night
G C D Em
But you dare not touch her and you don't want to fight
G C D G
so you just say Goodnight
[Chorus]
C D G Em
This old routine will drive you mad
C D G Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud
C D G Em
And sometimes you don't even know why you loved her
C D G
Well you look at her now and you see why
[Verse 2]

And your youngest is out fighting a war
C D Em
But he won't say what he's fighting for
G D C Em
If he's gone because of war for you
G C D G
in which you rather true
[Chorus]
C D G Em
This old routine will drive you mad
C D G Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud

C D G
