Dirty Laundry

Intro: Am

Am
That lipstick on your collar, well, 
it ain't my shade of pink
          Em
And I can tell by the smell of that 
perfume, it's like forty dollars too
 cheap
              Am
And there's a little wine stain on 
the pocket of your white cotton 
thread
           Em
Well, you drink beer and whiskey, 
boy, and you know I don't drink red

C
Found it over in the corner, wadded 
up on the bedroom floor
Dm
You shoulda hid it in the closet, 
you shoulda burned it, you shoulda 
lost it

    Am
Now I'ma have to hang you out to 
dry, dry, dry
Em
Clothespin all your secrets to the 
line, line, line
Am                                
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, 
                 Em
just say goodbye to you
         (Am)
All those midnights sneaking in, 
"I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
Continues after the ad
All the Ajax in the world ain't 
                            Am

Am
If the neighbors get to asking, I 
won't cover nothin' up
     Em
I'll tell 'em every little detail, 
how you drug me through the mud
          Am
I'm gonna string up your old 
button-down and slide it on the 
porch
Em
Just in case you get the nerve to 
come knockin' on my door


      Am
Yeah, I'ma have to hang you out to 
dry, dry, dry
