INTRO


     E
Well I ain't proud of what I'm about to do
(1)  (2)  (3)  A(add9)
All alone up   here with you

With the picture of your man
                                            E   Esus
Face down upon the night stand, so he can't see
    E
And I don't like running all the red lights here 
(1)   (2)  (3) A(add9)
Every time the coast is clear

Any time you need my lovin'
                                    E
You know I'll come running, faithfully



      Abm7        A(add9)
Cause he stays so busy with his money
    Abm7            A(add9)
And you, you get so lonely when he's gone 
    Abm7              A(add9)   E/Ab
And me, I'm just your temporary lover
          F#m
'Til your blues are gone
Ab5     A(add9)              B             E    F#m7  A  A(add9)  E  Esus
I'm the man of the house whenever he ain't home



        E
Now the statues on the side of that big gate 
        (1)      (2) (3)  A(add9)
They're laughing as  I    drive away

And I can't keep from thinking
                                        E  Esus
Are they laughing at your old man or at me
        E
And the only part that I don't like to play
       (1)       (2) (3) A(add9)
Is the part when I   get up and go away

I find it mighty hard
                                    E
Just keeping this old heart tucked away



      Abm7        A(add9)
Cause he stays so busy with his money
    Abm7            A(add9)
And you, you get so lonely when he's gone 
    Abm7              A(add9)   E/Ab
And me, I'm just your temporary lover
          F#m
'Til your blues are gone
Ab5     A(add9)              B             E    F#m7  A  A(add9) E  Esus
I'm the man of the house whenever he ain't home
