Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends

After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin'

for a bright new world
C chordC F chordF
Wanda looked all around this town

And all she found was Earl
C chordC
Well it wasn't two weeks
F chordF
After she got married that
C chordC G chordG
Wanda started gettin' abused
C chordC F chordF
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
C chordC G chordG C chordC
And make up to cover a bruise
C chordC F chordF
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
C chordC G chordG
She let the law take it from there
C chordC F chordF
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
C chordC G chordG C chordC
And put her in intensive care
Am chordAm G chordG
Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atlanta
F chordF C chordC
On a red eye midnight flight

She held Wanda's hand as they

Worked out a plan
F chordF G chordG
And it didn't take 'em long to decide
C chordC F chordF C chordC
That Earl had to die
G chordG F chordF
Goodbye Earl
C chordC F chordF C chordC
Those black-eyed peas

They tasted all right to me Earl
C chordC F chordF C chordC
You're feelin' weak
G chordG
Why don't you lay down
F chordF
And sleep Earl
C chordC F chordF C chordC
Ain't it dark
G chordG F chordF C chordC F chordF C chordC F chordF
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl
C chordC F chordF
The cops came by to bring Earl in
C chordC
They searched the house
G chordG
High and low
C chordC
Then they tipped thier hats
F chordF C chordC G chordG C chordC
And said "thank you ladies if you hear from him let us know"
C chordC
Well the weeks went by and
F chordF
Spring turned to Summer
C chordC G chordG
And Summer faded into Fall
C chordC F chordF
And it turns out he was a missing person
C chordC G chordG
Who nobody missed at all
Am chordAm
So the girls bought some land
G chordG
And a roadside stand
F chordF C chordC
Out on Highway 109
Am chordAm
They sell Tennessee ham
G chordG
And strawberry jam
F chordF
And they don't
G chordG
Lose any sleep at night 'cause
C chordC F chordF C chordC
Earl had to die
G chordG F chordF
Goodbye Earl
C chordC
We need a break
F chordF C chordC G chordG F chordF
Let's go out to the lake Earl
C chordC F chordF C chordC
We'll pack a lunch
G chordG F chordF
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
C chordC F chordF C chordC
Well is that all right
G chordG F chordF
Good Let's go for a ride
C chordC F chordF C chordC G chordG F chordF C chordC
Earl Hey
