Note: I have included two versions of this song. One without capo
and one with, so that beginners can play along.

Intro

(F) Designer names and diamond ri(F7)ngs
(Bb) Are just some of the finer things
(C7) I thought it took to keep her satis(F)fied
But, a bank account and credit ca(F7)rds
A (Bb) circled drive, through an acre yard
(C7) Couldn't fill that lonesome feeling
That she held in(F)side

I (Bb) bought her fancy clothes for all (F) occasions
And (F#) a (G) new car so
She could go just (C7) any old where she pleased
I bought the (F) golden band she wore
On the (Bb) hand, that closed the door
And I (C7) bought the shoes that just walked out on (F) me

[(F)] [(Bb)] [(C7)] [(F)]
(F) Leavin' early and stayin' out la(F7)te
(Bb) I thought for sure, her love would wait
(C7) Until the day that I could find the (F) time
But all the things that she exp(F7)ected
(Bb) Were all the things that I neglected
(C7) For what she wanted most from me
Would not have cost a (F) dime

I (Bb) bought her fancy clothes for all (F) occasions
And (F#) a (G) new car so
She could go just (C7) any old where she pleased
I bought the (F) golden band she wore
On the (Bb) hand, that closed the door
And I (C7) bought the shoes that just walked out on (F) me

I bought the (F) golden band she wore (F) (G) (A) On the (Bb) hand
That closed the door
And I (C7) bought the shoes that just walked out on (F) me
Yes, I (C7) bought the shoes that just walked out on (F) me
