 C                    G7             C 
I got back in town a day before I'd planned to
  G7                                    C 
I smiled and said I'll sure surprise my wife
 F                       C 
I don't think I'll call I'll just get on home
                      G7                 C 
For I didn't know the cold hard facts of life

                  G7                C 
I passed a little wine store on the corner
  G7                                C 
I pictured pink champagne by candle light
  F                              C 
I stopped the car right then got out and hurried in
                   G7                 C 
My mind not on the cold hard facts of life

  F                                    C 
 A stranger stood there laughing at the counter
   G7                                 C 
He said I'll have two bottles of your best
    F                                   C 
Her husband's out of town and there's a party
                                    G7 
He winked as if to say you know the rest

  C                  G7               C 
I left the store two steps behind the stranger
     G7                                  C 
From there to my house his car stayed in sight
   F                     C 
It wasn't till he turned into my drive that I learned
                     G7                 C 
I was witnessing the cold hard facts of life

  F                                 C 
I drove around the block till I was dizzy
     G7                                  C 
Each time the noise came louder from within
    F                             C 
And then I saw our bottle there beside me
                                      G7 
I drank a fifth of courage and walked in

 C                    G7                 C 
Lord you should have seen their frantic faces
     G7                                      C 
They screamed and cried please put away that knife
  F                        C 
I think I'll go to hell or I'll rot here in this cell
                       G7                 C 
But who taught who the cold hard facts of life

                       G7                 C 
But who taught who the cold hard facts of life
