Well, she crept back in the house at half past three
          Dm              Gm             Dm
Shook her head to see him snoring in his sleep

He's a heap of junk that pours from his top drawer
          Dm                 Gm             Dm
Sometimes likes to spread it out around the floor
     Dm   Am/E  F     F#dim  Gm 
It's ev - i -   dence of     what he was like
   Am       A7       Dm    (D-E-F-A-D-E-F gliss down)
He likes to remember when

She said, "You've been pushing me like I was a sore tooth.
Dm                    Gm                      Dm
You can't respect me 'cause I've done so much for you."

That I survived the other twenty-five before you?"
