MI RE LA DO#m
Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins
FA#m SI7
Silently closing her bedroom door
FA#m SI7
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
MI RE LA DO#m
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching a handkerchief
FA#m SI7
Quietly turning the backdoor key
FA#m SI7
Stepping outside she is free
MI
She (we gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)
MI/RE
Home (we gave her everithing money could)
DO#m FA#M DO#m
FA#M
She is leaving home after living alone for so many years
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there.
Standing alone at the top of the stairs,
She breaks down and cries to her husband Daddy our baby's gone.
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?
She (we never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
Home (we strruggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade
She (what did we do that was wrong?)
Is having (we didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (fun is the one that money can't buy)
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years
MI FA#M LA MI
She's leaving home bye bye
MI/RE xx0100
