F
At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette
C7
Read the paper in a cloud of smoke
While the dirty dinner dishes soaked
F
Woke up the kids and coaxed 'em out of bed
G F
Then she burnt the toast just like the day before
N.C. C7
The day she got divorced
[Verse 2]
N.C. C7
Left the kids with the girl next door
Parked her car at the county court
F
Around and around about the child support he'll never pay
C7
The judge said, "We're going to have to start
Without the party of the second part"
F
'Cause the party of the second part was M.I.A.
G F
He was gettin' drunk just like the day before
N.C. C7
The day she got divorced
[Bridge]
Em7
It didn't feel any different than it ever has
F
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
Em7 F
Couldn't love him any less or hate him any more
C7
The day she got divorced
[Verse 3]
N.C. C7
Wasn't workin', had the whole day off
Bought a bottle, then she called her boss
F
Waited for him at the motel lot until he got there
C7
First he told her that her hair looked nice
Promised he was gonna leave his wife
F
Yeah, two more lies but she didn't care
G F
'Cause it was just like every other day before
C7
The day she got divorced
[Bridge]
Em7
It didn't feel any different than it ever had
F
She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad
Em7 F
Couldn't love him any less or hate him any more
C7
The day she got divorced
[Interlude]
C7 F
[Verse 4]
N.C. C7
Kids are yakking with their hungry mouths
Dog scratching, laying on the couch
F
Think she really ought to clean this house but what the hell
G F
'Cause it's just as dirty as the day before
[Outro]
C7 C7
Yeah, she's divorced
