[Verse 1]
G
I came home this morning
C
I looked around
D
I called out to my darling
C G
But not a sound
And there upon the table
C
By an old love magazine
G
Was a letter from my baby
D G
And a golden wedding ring
[Verse 2]
C
The table told a story I can't forget
D
A half a cup of coffee
C G
and a half smoked cigarette
I could see she'd waited
C
hoping I'd come home
G
But some coffee and the cigarette
D G
Told me that she was gone
[Bridge]
D
I opened up the letter
G C G
And read the tear-stained lines
A7
My world for me was ending
D
Right before my eyes
G
She said I set you free now
C
Go on and have your fling
G
And all my baby left me
D G
Was a letter and a ring
[Outro]
G
Oh oh oh oh
