 This is how she start 
           A6                       D 
A lot of restrictions to break your heart 
D      D/F#   G 
 "After ten o'clock 
             A6                    D        D7

D        D/F#   G 
 No chair, no table 
       A6               D 
The convenience is terrible 
D       D/F#      G 
 And on the other part 
       A6              D        D7 
No hot water to take a bath 


BRIDGE 
      G                      D/A      B7 
And believe you sleep like a rabbit 
        Em         A         D 
A dirty sheet with half of a blanket 
D            D/F#      G 
 And she has the audacity

You wastin' your time, you talking in vain

Because, when she get her fees 
                  A6                   D        D7 
She couldn't care less if you vexed or pleased
