The Key's in the Mailbox

by Buck Owens

C                                  G7

Oh jealous me and careless you the odds were just too great

I couldn't take those lonely nights you made me sit and wait

G7

I thought I'd seen the last of you when you walked out of sight

Instead I see you in my dreams each night

                            C7      F

So the key's in the mailbox come on in

    G7                                        C

I'm sitting here wishing dear I had your love again

                        C7           F

I'll never even ask you where you've been

    G7                           C

The key's in the mailbox come on in

G7

I said I'd rather be alone than share your company

I said don't come around at all if you want more than me

G7

But sitting here alone I can't deny the flame that burns

I'd gladly take you back on any terms

repeat #2
