Intro: C/G  G6  Dm  C/G  G6  F  C/G 

           G6             Dm    C/G 
Jamie ran aground out in Ohio 
           G6             F      C/G 
Wife left for the great unknown 
                   G6          Dm         C/G 
He says he's gonna take to the high road 
                           F      C/G 
And she will find a place alone 


                G6                 Dm     C/G 
He said he just could not make her happy 
              G6              F      C/G 
That he never tried so hard before 
                       G6       Dm         C/G 
He'd wake up first and make the coffee 
                           F       
Now the mornings were like war
