(Line 1) 
         C        G 
Used to get up at 7 
        C                G 
Make breakfast for the children 
          C          G     D 
Get them out to the bus by 8 

(Line 2) 
      C           G 
Sit down with a coffee 
           C         G 
Throw the hair in a pony 
                C          G 
Make sure the kitchen was clean 
                 D 
And the bed was made 

(Line 3) 
            Em        C 
Then make plans for dinner 
                 D 
Put the laundry away 
      Em           C 
Check in with the husband 
                              D 
At least a couple of times a day 

 
           C       G 
That was before I came home 
         C           G 
Before walked in and I found 
               C 
Him with the neighbour 
    G                D 
Who I thought was a friend 

          C          G 
Now I am down on my knees 
          Em          C 
Begging, please God, please

I just want my life back again

(Line 1) 
        C         G 
Had a garden of flowers

Where I spent hours and hours 
          C          G          D 
It was a homecoming sight to see

             C          G 
And I would hang in my cozies 
          C                  G 
While we watched old rented movies 
               C             G 
He said, "You don't have to dress up 
    D 
For me"

Before walked in and I found 
                C 
Him with the neighbour 
    G                D 
Who I thought was a friend 

          C          G 
Now I am down on my knees 
           Em          C 
Begging, please God, please
