Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 V1: I used to come home late and not a minute too soon

  Barking like a dog, howling at the moon

  You'd be mad as an ol' red hen, up all night wonderin' where I been

  I'd fall down and say come help me honey

  You laughed outloud, I guess you thought it was funny

  I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'

  Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

 C1: Now I'm paintin' the house and I'm mendin' the fence

  I guess I gone out and lost all my good sense

  Too much work is hard for your health

  I could've died drinkin', now I'm killing myself

  Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash

  It's honey do this, honey do that

  I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'

  Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

(instrumental break over chorus chords)

C2: Now I'm fixin' the sink and I'm mowin' the grass

You made me a list and I'm bustin' my...wheel

All broke down, tail's been (or talespin??) draggin'

It's a tough ol' life up here on the wagon

Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash

It's honey do this, honey do that

I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'

Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'

Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
