[VERSE]
[G]I don't mind doing [D]dishes at night
[C]Picking up all your mess that [D]you're leaving behind
[G]Cause you go on the road for a [D]month at a time
You say you [C]can't wait to get back [D]home
[G]And I don't mind when you're [D]coming home late
Whiskey [C]on your breath, say you [D]made a mistake
Kissed a [G]girl on the mouth, it was a [D]three-dollar bet
But you'll [C]always call me your [D]own
[CHORUS]
[C]How can I be the one that [G]cries for you
Unless you [D]love me true
[C]How can I be the one that [G]lets it slide
Unless you [D]take the time
To be a good man to [G]me
Any day of the [D]week
Tell the boys all [C]"No," that you just can't [D]go
No, [G]tonight it's just my baby and [D]me
Be a good man to [G]me
[VERSE]
[G]I understand if it's [D]not in your way
To go [C]doting around on a [D]lady all day
But the [G]simplest thing that would [D]make my heart ring
Well, you [C]don't even think to d[D]o it
So [G]if it's too much to be [D]given enough
To keep the [C]sparkle alive
I [D]guess that we tried every[G]thing that we could
To keep our [D]love going good
And I'd [C]like to think I'm better [D]for it
[CHORUS]
[D]And if you did ever r[C]eally love me
Then it [G]wasn't in vain
[D]Cause what's a girl [C]without a broken heart
And some [G]baggage to claim
When she [D]climbs on a plane
[OUTRO]
[G]I don't mind doing [D]dishes at night
Picking [C]up all your mess that you're [D]leaving behind
Cause you [G]go on the road for a [D]month at a time
You say you [C]can't wait to get [D]back home
[G]I don't mind doing [D]dishes at night
[C]Picking up all your mess that [D]you're leaving behind
[G]Cause you go on the road for a [D]month at a time
You say you [C]can't wait to get back [D]home
[G]And I don't mind when you're [D]coming home late
Whiskey [C]on your breath, say you [D]made a mistake
Kissed a [G]girl on the mouth, it was a [D]three-dollar bet
But you'll [C]always call me your [D]own
[CHORUS]
[C]How can I be the one that [G]cries for you
Unless you [D]love me true
[C]How can I be the one that [G]lets it slide
Unless you [D]take the time
To be a good man to [G]me
