Capo 6 (to match recording)

G

I guess he’s working late again

G

I don’t need to wonder where he is

C

But I do

G

He oughta know that by now

G

I know his job takes a lot of him

G

There’s not much left for him to give

C

But I need more

G

He oughta know that by now

Chorus:

C D

It’s not like he’s gotta read my mind

G

To know what I’m feeling after all this time

C D C D

It’s just too hard to hold onto what is never around

G

He oughta know that by now

He used to promise soon things would change

It’s been years and it’s still the same

And that hurts

He oughta know that by now

I’ve grown so used to being alone

Couldn’t be much worse if I were gone

And in a way I am

He oughta know that by now

Chorus

Guitar/mandolin break

Heartache and coffee at midnight motel

Leavin’ him was hard as hell

But I did

He oughta know that by now

I didn’t try to explain

No good-bye underneath my ring

That was all I left

He oughta know that by now

That was all I left

And he oughta know that by now
