INTRO: DCGDCGDCG
I woke up in the morning, heard a mockingbird sing
D
Was he laughing at me?
CG
I went to the basin, washed the sleep out my eyes
D
So I could see
CG
A note on the bed close to where my lover should be
D
She slipped away in the night
CG
The writing was shaky and with tears on the sheets
D
I'm sorry we had a fight
CHORUS:
CGD
So, farewell sweet lover, farewell
CGD
I'm sorry we never said goodbye
CGD
So, farewell sweet lover, farewell
CGDCGD
Left with a tear in your eye
C
Must've been brewing for a very long time
GD
In the wardrobe the hangers are bare
C
Don't know how you did it, it must've been planned
GD
You even took your favourite chair
CHORUS:
CGD
So, goodbye my lady, goodbye
CGD
You won't find no tear in my eye
CGD
So, goodbye my lady, goodbye
CGDG
Going out tonight to get high
BRIDGE:
G
Found myself at Charlie's scene

Drinking Old Fashioneds
Em
Sticky painted movie queen winked her eye at me
That's how it happened
Diamond shoes, satin dress
CD
[ ? ? ], black eyes flashing, flashing, flashing, flashing

CG
Woke up in the morning, heard my mockingbird sing
D
And he was singing for me
CG
The lady I met last night's, here by my side
D
She's good company
CHORUS:

Well, hello sweet lady, hello
CGD
Good morning with a smile

Well, hello sweet lady, hello

This lady's gonna make it alright
