Honest Wage

         Em                        
When you called, it was loud, I got
 C
 angry
                     G     D
I was everything but sober
       Em                        
I said things that were ruthless, 
       C
and I meant 'em
                        G    D
But you told me to come over
                Am
You say he's in town, and you're 
crying
           G                       
And you're throwing him one hell of
   Bm7
 a party
          Am
So I hang up and start shaking
         G                       Bm7
Thinking you never threw one for me

[Chorus]
              G                    
I wish it was easier to kiss you on
     Em
 the mouth
              C                    
Like it is to work hard and earn an
        D
 honest wage

                  G                
You're not always fair to me, like 
           Em
I wish you would be
                 C                 
He's the one who left home, I'm the
         D
 one who stayed

[Verse]
     Em                            
So I drove when I shouldn’t, but I 
C
make it
              G     D
I'm feeling alright
         Em                        
You walk out, I'm a mess, you look 
C
perfect
              G     D
I figured you might
             Am
Next thing I know, I'm exploding
    G                          Bm7
And everything feels awful and wrong
         Am
And he's there right beside you
        G                   Bm7
But the music inside is our song

[Chorus]
              G                    
I wish it was easier to kiss you on
     Em
 the mouth
              C                    
Like it is to work hard and earn an
        D
 honest wage
                  G                
You're not always fair to me, like 
           Em
I wish you would be
                 C                 
He's the one who left home, I'm the
         D
 one who stayed


[Repeat chorus a few times]


              G                    
I just get so angry when you say 
          Em
you love us both
                C                
I wanna be more like him, I wanna 
              D    G
know there's hope
