[Verse]
 E         Bm         F#m                 C#m       F#7 
Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins 
 F#m7/B                  B9 
Silently closing her bedroom door
 F#m7/B                    B9 
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
 
         E   Bm            F#m                 C#m          F#7 
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching a handkerchief
 F#m7/B              B9 
Quietly turning the backdoor key
 F#m7/B                  B9 
Stepping outside she is free
 
 
[Chorus]
 E 
She (We gave her most of our lives.)
   E 
Is leaving  (Sacrificed most of our lives.)

Home  (We gave her everything money could                   ^ ^ ^

 E       Bm           F#m                C#m            F#7 
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown,
 F#m7/B                     B9 
Picks up the letter that's lying there.
 F#m7/B                B9 
Standing alone at the top of the stairs,
 
           E        Bm           F#m                C#m           F#7 
She breaks down and cries to her husband "Daddy our baby's gone!"
 F#m7/B                    B9 
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
 F#m7/B                   B9 
How could she do this to me?
 
 
[Chorus]
 E 
She (We never thought of ourselves.)
   E

Meeting a man from the motor trade
 
 
[Chorus]
 E 
She  (What did we do that was wrong?)
   E 
Is having  (We didn't know it was wrong.)

Fun  (Fun is the one thing that money can't 
 C#m                       F#7                  C#m         F#7 
Something inside that was always denied for so many years
