(C15 is normal C, just add a pinky on 3rd string, 4th fret)

Intro:    C15       x2
                 C15                             
Got your message on the answering machine, 
        C15                
You said you'd be late again- 
           
But what does that mean? 
            C15                              
It means im lonely- after all, 
             C15                    
So ill be waiting here in case you call. 

    C15    x2

               C15                 
I guess our telephone ain't gonna ring, 
         C15           
I found a note he wrote, 
                                  
It says he heard you sing. 
     C15                           
So I guess your out with him, 
                       C15           
Whats a marriage mean to you? 

Do you wear you diamond ring when you lay down? 

      
Oh-oh-oh, 

Chorus:
            
You drop your dress, 
                  
You turn your head,
                                                        
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed. 

Verse 2:
I didn't sleep last night- waitin' by the window, 
Now the mornings come with night time glow. 
You told me where you were 
I said you lie, 
Don't you even wanna try? 
I take that ring back cause you dont wanna be my wife. 

Oh oh-oh-oh,
Chrous: 
You drop your dress, 
You turn your head,
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed. 
You drop your dress,
You turn your head,
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed. 

Bridge:
                   
Do you know girl, 
         
Bout the justice of the peace, 
         
Is gotta bring one of us to our knees. 
                                                                     
So I'll go down you can come back home even though, 
                                
I know your gonna keep runnin' round. 

Chorus:
You drop your dress, 
You turn your head,
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed. 
You drop your dress, 
You turn your head,
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed. 
You drop your dress, 
You turn your head,
You hold him when I sleep at home alone in our bed.
