[Verse]
E         Bm         F#m        
Wednesday morning at five 
         C#m       F#7
o'clock as the day begins
F#m7/B                  B9
Silently closing her bedroom door
F#m7/B                    B9
Leaving the note that she hoped 
would say more

         E   Bm            F#m   
She goes downstairs to the 
              C#m          F#7
kitchen clutching a handkerchief
F#m7/B              B9
Quietly turning the backdoor key
F#m7/B                  B9
Stepping outside she is free


[Chorus]

E
She (We gave her most of our lives.)
   E
Is leaving  (Sacrificed most of our 
lives.)
E                  Bm6
Home  (We gave her everything money 
could                   ^ ^ ^
C#m                      F#7 
She's leaving home after living 
                C#m           F#7
alone for so many years

[Verse]
E       Bm           F#m        
Father snores as his wife gets 
        C#m            F#7
into her dressing gown,
F#m7/B                     B9
Picks up the letter that's lying 
there.
F#m7/B                B9
Standing alone at the top of the 
stairs,

           E        Bm           
She breaks down and cries to her 
F#m                C#m           F#7
husband "Daddy our baby's gone!"
F#m7/B                  
Why would she treat us so 
  B9
thoughtlessly?
F#m7/B                   B9
How could she do this to me?


[Chorus]
E
She (We never thought of ourselves.)
   E
Is leaving  (Never a thought for 
ourselves.)
E                    Bm6
Home  (We struggled hard all our 
lives to get               ^ ^ ^
C#m                      F#7 
She's leaving home after living 
                C#m           F#7
alone for so many years

[Verse]
E      Bm         F#m           
Friday morning at nine o'clock 
      C#m       F#7
she is far away
F#m7/B                 B9
Waiting to keep the appointment she 
made
F#m7/B                 B9
Meeting a man from the motor trade


[Chorus]
E
She  (What did we do that was 
wrong?)
   E
Is having  (We didn't know it was 
wrong.)
E                Bm6
Fun  (Fun is the one thing that 
money can't
C#m                       F#7    
Something inside that was always 
              C#m         F#7
denied for so many years
