[Dm] I remember the day
I remember it well
My baby looked right through me and I could tell
[Gm] He would not even touch me
Couldn′t look me in the eyes
[Dm] His lips say I'm sorry
Why it′s hard to say [Am] goodbye?
And I'm tired, [Gm] and I'm ready to lay [Dm] down
[Dm] He won′t kiss me no more
Don′t even conversate
I put his food on the table
And he won't even touch his [Gm] plate
Even a blind man, even a blind man can [Dm] see
I can [Am] feel it in my soul
[Gm] My baby′s slipping away from [Dm] me
[Dm] They say you reap
Just what you sow
But I really, really, really, really don't want him to [Gm] go
But I′m tired
And I'm ready to lay [Dm] down.
I can [Am] feel it in my soul
[Gm] My baby won′t be hanging [Dm] around.
[Dm] Got to get myself together
Don't worry no more
God give me strength to get up, turn off the light and lock the [Gm] door
But I'm so tired
And I′m just ready to lay [Dm] down
Hmm-hmm
I got a [Am] strange, strange feeling that my [Gm] baby won′t be hanging [Dm] around
