Verse 1:
G Em
I lost my lucky ball & chain
C D
And now she's four years gone
G Em
Just five feet tall and sick of me
C G
And all my rattling on
G Em
She threw away her baby-doll
C D
I held on to my pride
G Em
But I was young and foolish then
C G
I feel old and foolish now.
D6 ( a D with a muted B string )
Chorus
C G
Confidentially, she never called me baby-doll
C G
Confidentially, I never had much pride
C G
But now I rock a bar stool and I drink for two
D C D
Just pondering this time bomb in my mind.
Verse 2:
G Em
I lost my lucky ball & chain
C D
And now she's four years gone
G Em
Just five feet tall and sick of me
C G
And all my rattling on
G Em
She walked away from a happy man.
C D
I thought I was so cool.
G Em
I just stood there whistling
C D G Em
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
C D G Em C D
There goes the bride as she walked out the door
Bridge: ( Noise )
Verse 3:
I could shake my tiny fist
And swear I wasn't wrong,
But what's the sense in arguing
When you're all alone?
Sure as you can't steer a train
You can't change your fate
When she told me off that day
I knew I'd lost my home.
D6
Chorus
Confidentially, I never told you of her charms.
Confidentially, we never had a home,
But this railroad apartment was the perfect place
When she'd sit and hold me in her arms.
(Repeat 2nd verse)

I just stood there whistling
