He Oughta Know That By Now Chords & Lyrics - Lee Ann Womack

CAPO: 6th Fret

[INTRO G]

I guess he's working late again
I don't need to wonder where he is, but I[C] do
He oughta [G]know that by now

I know his job takes a lot of him
There's not much left for him to give, but I[C] need more
He oughta [G]know that by now

[CHORUS]
[C]It's not like he's got to [D]read my mind
To [G]know what I'm feeling after all this time
It's just [C]too hard to hold onto, [D]what is never a[C]round [D]
[N.C.]He oughta [G]know that by now

He used to promise, soon things would change
It's been years and it's still the same and tha[C]t hurts
He oughta [G]know that by now

I've grown so used to being alone
Couldn't be much worse if I were gone and in a [C]way I am
He oughta [G]know that by now

[CHORUS]
[C]It's not like he's got to [D]read my mind
To [G]know what I'm feeling after all this time
It's just [C]too hard to hold onto, [D]what is never a[C]round [D]
He oughta [G]know that by now

INSTRUMENTAL: [C] [G] [C] [D] [C] [D] [G]

Heartache and coffee at the midnight motel
Leaving him was hard as hell, but I[C] did
He oughta [G]know that by now

I didn't try to explain
No good-bye underneath my ring, that was a[C]ll I left
He oughta [G]know that by now
That was [C]all I left [D]
And he oughta [G]know that by now
