[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G G C C D D G G
So you come on home, walk through the door.
C C D D Em Em
She's in the kitchen searching through the drawers.
G G C C D D Em Em
So you stop and watch her and ask what she's looking for.
G G C C D D G G
She says she's not sure.

G G C C D D G G
And it gets late and you turn off the lights.
C C D D Em Em
Her body so close to you in the night.
G G C C D D Em Em
But you dare not touch her and you don't want to fight,
G G C C D D G G
so you just say, "Goodnight."


[Chorus]
C C D D G G Em Em
This old routine will drive you mad
C C D D G G Em Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud
C C D D G G Em Em
And sometimes you don't even know why you loved her.
C C D D G G
Well you look at her now, and you see why.


[Verse 2]
G G C C D D G G
And your youngest is out fighting a war.
C C D D Em Em
But he won't say what he's fighting for.
G G D D C C Em Em
If he's gone because of war for you,
G G C C D D G G
in which you rather true.


[Chorus]
C C D D G G Em Em
This old routine will drive you mad
C C D D G G Em Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud
C C D D G G Em Em
Sometimes you can't even recall the sound of his laughter. Oh well
C C D D G G
did you ever really know the sound?


[Break]
G G C C D D G G C C D D

C C D D G G Em Em
This old routine will drive you mad
C C D D G G Em Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud
C C D D G G Em Em
Sometimes you don't even know how you're still standing. Well she
C C D D Em Em
looks at you now, and you see how. Well you
C C D D G G
look at them now, and you know how.


[End]
