G C
you know he gave tem a good home
C G
but his wife thought we were crazy
G D
and one day we found her gone
D C G
we threw here clothes into the car trunk
G C
her photographs her rosary
C G D
we went to the pier and got drunk
D G
and threw it all into the sea
chorus
G D C
if i could live my life all over
C G
it wouldnut matter anyway
G C D
tcause i never could stay sober
D G
