D.I.V.O.R.C.E. (Listen to midi)    (Listen to sample)

 

   D                                                  G                       D

1.       Our little boy is four years and     quite a little man,

                                                            E                                 A

so we spell out the words we don`t     want him to understand.

            D                                  G          D

    Like T.O.Y or maybe S.U.R.P.R.I.S.E

                 G                            D

   but the words we`re hiding from him now

                                  A        D

   tear the heart right out of me.

 

                               - G                             D

Our D.I.V.O.R.C.E.       becomes final today,

                              - E                          A

me and little J.O.E.     will be going away.

   D                                                           - G                       D

I love you both and this will be pure H.E.       double L. for me.

           G                            D                  A     D

Oh, I wish that we could stop this D.I.V.O.R.C.E.

 

   D                                                                    G                          D

2.    Watch him smile, he thinks it`s Christmas,   or his 5th birthday,

                                               E                         A

   and he thinks C.U.S.T.O. D.Y. spells fun or play.

         D                                                    G                                  D

    I spell out all the hurtin` words, and I turn my head when I speak,

              G                      D                                         A                D

    cause I can`t spell away this hurt that`s dripping down my cheek.
