The Key's In The Mailbox

Chorus====

[D] Oh, the key's in the mailbox, come on [G] in,
I'm [A7] sitting here wishing dear, I had your love a-[D] gain,
I'll never even ask you where you've [G] been.
Oh, the [A7] key's in the mailbox, come on [D] in.

Verse 1====

[D] Oh, jealous me and careless you the [A7] odds were just too great.
And I couldn't take those lonely nights, you made me sit and [D] wait.
I thought I'd seen the last of you when [A7] you walked out of sight,
Instead I see you in my dreams at [D] night.

Repeat Chorus===

Verse 2===

Well, I said I'd rather live alone than share your company,
And I said, "don't come around at all," if you want more than me.
But sitting here alone I can't deny this flame that burns,
I'd gladly take you back on any terms.

Repeat Chorus===

Just standard 3-chord country shuffle with walking bass line.
