Well the | [G] sun came in my | window, Wednesday | [C] morning | [C]  
And your | [D] love was like the | golden rays a- | [C] gain   | [D]  
Now I'm | [G] lying here on a | Thursday, and you're | [C] lovin' someone | new
And it | [D] looks like I'm up | shit creek a- | [G] gain [C] | [G]   |       
| [D]   | [D]

And I | [G] can't help but | thinking of your | [C] ...lovin' | ways
And I've | [D] cried a quart of | tears since you've been | [C] gone | [D]  
And I | [G] can't face the | morning by my- | [C] self love   | [C]  
And it | [D] looks like I'm up | shit creek a- | [G] gain [C] | [G] |

| [D] ...Since you've | been gone, I | [C] cry all the | [G] time |
| [D] And I | cannot stand | [C] leavin' you be- | [D] hind

So I'll | [G] pull myself | together, and I'll | [C] dry away my | tears
But the | [D] morning light has | brought back memo- | [C] ries | [D]  
And I | [G] can't face the | morning by my- | [C] self love | [C]  
And it | [D] looks like I'm up | shit creek a- | [G] gain [C] | [G]  

So I'm | [G] out a walkin' | on this dusty | [C] highway | [C]  
'Cause you've | [D] given me no | reason for to | [C] stay | [D]  
And I'll | [G] walk until I've | found someone who | [C] loves me not in | vain
And it | [D] looks like I'm up | shit creek a- | [G] gain [C] | [G]  
And it | [D] looks like I'm up | [D↓] shit creek a- | [G] gain [C] | [G↓]
