Cold Hard Facts Of Life Chords

(ver. 2)
Porter Wagoner
C                    G7             C
I got back in town a day before I'd planned to

  G7                                    C
I smiled and said I'll sure surprise my wife

F                       C
I don't think I'll call I'll just get on home

                      G7                 C
For I didn't know the cold hard facts of life


                  G7                C
I passed a little wine store on the corner

  G7                                C
I pictured pink champagne by candle light

  F                              C
I stopped the car right then got out and hurried in

                   G7                 C
My mind not on the cold hard facts of life


  F                                    C
A stranger stood there laughing at the counter

   G7                                 C
He said I'll have two bottles of your best

    F                                   C
Her husband's out of town and there's a party

                                    G7
He winked as if to say you know the rest


  C                  G7               C
I left the store two steps behind the stranger

     G7                                  C
From there to my house his car stayed in sight

   F                     C
It wasn't till he turned into my drive that I learned

                     G7                 C
I was witnessing the cold hard facts of life


  F                                 C
I drove around the block till I was dizzy

     G7                                  C
Each time the noise came louder from within

    F                             C
And then I saw our bottle there beside me

                                      G7
I drank a fifth of courage and walked in


C                    G7                 C
Lord you should have seen their frantic faces

     G7                                      C
They screamed and cried please put away that knife

  F                        C
I think I'll go to hell or I'll rot here in this cell

                       G7                 C
But who taught who the cold hard facts of life


                       G7                 C
But who taught who the cold hard facts of life
