Digging My Lawn

A          D
Early one Sunday,
     G                D
Well anyway early for me,
      A            D
As I slid from my double bed,
G               C F  F
What could I see

 D           G          C               F#
Standing outside as the night turned to dawn,
A         D          G                     D     C F Gm C (one strum)
There was man who I didn't know digging my lawn,

A          D
Was it her husband,
   G                    D
I pondered or was he a crook,
        A         D
Why was he taking car numbers,
G             C  F  C  F
Down in a bo-ok,

   D         C          F#
I started to ring and I rung ninety-nine,
B                Bb        A   A
"Nein, you must not," she said,
Dbm          D       Dbm          D
She was half German, half out of bed,
Dbm            D             Dbm         D
Which half was which doesn't have to be said,
B            G   G
Turing her head
B             G  G
Her face was red


A  D  G  D  A
D G  C  F   F

D  G  C  F#  A  D
G  D

C  F  Gm  C (one strum)

A         D
"He is my husband,"
     G                       D
She whispered I started to sweat,
         A
Just my luck,
          D         G           C  F  F
When I'd only done this for a bet

 D           G          C               F#
Standing outside as the night turned to dawn,
A         D          G                     D     C F Gm C (one strum)
