A
I wish you'd never blown out the candle
                                  G
Wish you'd never turned out the light
                   E
it didn't help me see
                   Bm
it didn't help me fight
        E                        Bm                  D
and it put a waking sleep in my night (sleep in my night)

  A
Why'd you come here from Dallas?
                           G                           E
Memphis couldn't offer a thing that you don't already have
                    Bm
and you can't even sing
         F#m                  D             F#m                   D
and you were looking for a husband and you would've chose me if I was one
         Bm                     E                     A
and the whole world knows it I know that you know it too

 A                   E            D
Why don't you ever listen to the words
 A                   E            D
why don't you ever listen to the words
 A                              E                 D
it's the stuff in the middle I know you've never heard

 E                           A
now that you're still in specifics
E                          A
I don't want to push too fast
E                          A                                 G#
I'm only concerned with happiness and that's not too much to ask

 A
wish you'd

wish you'd never covered my threshold
                              G
wish you'd never stood in my door
                   E                   Bm
it didn't help me much and it hurt me more
     E                       Bm
you could have let me know before
           E                                         A
well the whole world knew it you must have had some idea
