I need some help here!
Pop it there!
[G] It was [C] our [G] 20th [C] anniversary
[F] And I was watching the [C] Super Bowl
When suddenly she started cursing me
Hell, I [D] almost dropped my [A#] remote [G] control
Then [F] she said, that's that
[C] And grabbed her hat
[G] And headed out into [D] the snow
[C] [F] And that was [C] almost [G] two long years [C] ago
Now [G] see her [C] shuffling [G] down [C] the street
Combat [F] boots on her [C] dainty feet
Pushing her belongings
[D] In a cart from the [G] Hayne Creek
See [C] her [G] bumming [C] cigarettes
[F] On the sidewalk where she sits
Lord, [C] she'd rather be homeless
[G] Than here at [C] home with me
[F] She'd rather be sleeping [C] in some boat
Than lolling in the lap of [G] luxury
And when [C] the cold wind starts to blow
[F] Lord, it hurts me so to know
[C] She'd rather be homeless
[G] Than here at home [C] with me
She said all [G] my friends [C] were dumb
And [F] she called me [C] yuppie scum
Said she'd kill me little damn
By my BMW [D] or my AT [G]&T
She said [C] I could take [G] these credit [C] cards of mine
[F] And stick them where the sun don't shine
And [C] when I'm homeless
I [G]
[C] see [G#] [G#] her [C#] sitting [C#] on her full length knee
[F#] And as I walk by [C#] she winks
Says spare some change for a lady
[D#] A lady who's finally [G#] free
She [C#] don't want [G#] my bonds [C#] and stocks
[F#] Living in her cardboard box
[C#] Oh, she'd rather be homeless
[G#] Than here at [C#] home with me
[F#] She'd rather eat soup down [C#] at the shelter
Than at the country club sipping [G#] fine check lead
[G#] And [C#] as I throw her a dice
[F#] Lord, it breaks this heart of mine
[C#] Oh, she'd rather be homeless
[G#] Than here at [C#] home with me
[F#] Yeah, she'd rather [C#] be homeless
[G#] Than here at home [F#] with [C#] me
[F#] [C#] [G#m] [C#]
