Suddenly

G
  I didn't mean to leave you hanging
 on a string like I did"
Gm
"Yeah, well, I mean, if you're 
seeing another man-"
                  D                
"There's no other man, Freddie. 
                       A           
It's just that I've got my own home
              G
 now; my own life, my own job,
              Gm
I'm a working woman."
"Yeah, just 'cause a man loses his 
D                            
job doesn't mean you got to go 
                          A
dumping him on his ass."
"I can't talk any longer, I gotta 
 G
go."
                     Gm            
"All right, baby, I guess I'll talk
                                D
 to you later then... some point, 
have a nice life,
                       A
do what you want, yeah?"

[Chorus]
G            Gm
Suddenly a woman leaves me
     D               A
I've got no job, machine relieved me
G              Gm               
Suddenly I've lost my piece of 
D        A
pie

    G                     Gm
I'm now in mourning and I wear all 
blue
           D                       
That's the color you wear when the 
A
dead one's you
 G             Gm         D      A
Suddenly I am living in a lie
    G           Gm            D
My woman's off with some other guy

[Verse 2]
G                               
I can remember the first time I 
Gm                             D 
saw her, hanging out in one of 
                  A
those singles bars, wearing a

                    G              
really fancy dress. She was 
             Gm
drinking a really expensive mixed 
drink and smoking one of those
          D                     
Marlboro 100s with the big fancy 
                           A
plastic filters on the end. Made her
 look like she had class,
G                          
least I thought so. But then 
    Gm                    D       
suddenly, bitch left me. All of a 
         A
sudden, like something suddenly

[Chorus]
G             Gm
Suddenly I'm on my own
      D                     
I don't hear no rings on the 
  A
telephone
G                            Gm
And all the rings that I've given 
her
            D   A
Have been returned

G                   Gm
 I cling to clothes she used to wear
D                         A
Then I try them on and I style my 
hair
G                Gm             
Suddenly I could never be as 
D      A
fine as she
G                 Gm             
 I've got her eyes but I sure 
            D
don't have her teeth

[Verse 3]
G                         Gm     
(And I can remember when we would
                                  D
 take walks around the public pool 
and the way she would
          A                        
look at me and the way she would do
            G                     
 this whistle and how I would 
Gm D
feel, I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try
    A
and show you what it was like)

[Chorus]
G             Gm        D       
Suddenly I found myself drinking
          A
 from the lowest shelf
G                                 
When all of a sudden I just could 
Gm            D    A
not believe my eyes
G                                 
 There goes some guy walking down 
    Gm                 D
the street wearing my tie

[Verse 4]
G                                  
(Suddenly I'm not gonna let another
Gm                 D             
 man take my woman. Not even 
                A
death can do us part because when
      G                          
I'm an angel, I'm gonna come down 
      Gm                           
from Heaven, and I'm gonna buy her 
     D           A
a brand new Cadillac. I'm gonna
                G        Gm D    
buy her a brand new Cadillac. Let
                    A        
 me tell you why, let me tell 
               G
everybody why. Because in the 50s,
Gm               D              
it was pompadours, and in the 
A               G                
60s, it was peace. In the 70s, it
                               Gm
 was bell-bottoms, I don't know why
                 D              
but.. In the 80s, Ronald Reagan, 
   A           G                  
BMWs, sushi - back home I used 
               Gm
that for fertilizer. But in the 90s,
D                         A
it's love, love is the new fad. I 
love you, good God almighty"
