As recorded by Ty Myers

Capo 4th fret


[Intro]
      


[Verse 1]
            
I woke up with

   
 a headache to

day
              
'Cause I've go

  
t mortgage due
             
And an empty b


ed to make
            
And girl, it's

          
 funny to me

How much I hat

e your memory
         
But unlike you

              
, it'll always

 
 be me
              
Now matter how

              
 bad I wanted 

   
to leave


[Verse 2]
            
Started smokin

      
g cigarettes a

gain
              
But I only lig

         
ht a few, 'cau

              
se you're not 

              
here to tell m

    
e I can't
            
And girl, I wi

             
sh I could say

              
 whiskey helps

              
 to drown the 


pain
              
But it only he

              
lps to drive m

       
e insane
              
Every time I h

         
ear your name


[Chorus]
      
Baby, I bet yo

u're happy now
              
Probably found

     
 you someone n

ew
              
Who's got his 

           
life all figur


ed out
            
As for me, I s

           
tay locked up 

in this old be

droom
         
Writing songs 

              
for you and th

             
inking about u


s

t it was love


[Interlude]
    



[Verse 3]
            
Went to bed wi

     
th a headache 

tonight
              
'Cause I've go

    
t a mortgage d

ue
              
And no one lay

    
ing by my side
            
I never knew a

           
 king size bed

 would get so 

cold
         
When the king 

            
is down and he

            
 is all alone
              
Lord knows, I 

              
need a queen t

  
o hold


[Chorus]
          
And baby, I be

t you're happy

 now
              
Probably found

     
 you someone n

ew
              
Who's got his 

           
life all figur


ed out
            
As for me, I s

           
tay locked up 

in this old be

droom
         
Writing songs

Girl, I though

I guess I didn

             
't know what l

ove was
