Fred Eaglesmith - Hows ernie

Well ^CI don't miss her anymore, the ^Fway that I used ^Cto. Was a ^Ctime when my heart was broke, but ^Gsomehow I got through. Still, her ^Cfather became my best friend, ^Fthat's one thing for ^Csure. ^CFunny how I miss him, a ^Glot more than ^Cher.

"How's ^AmErnie?", hey ^Fthat's what I would ^Csay, If I ^Cwrote her a letter or I ^Gcalled her up one day. "How's ^AmErnie?" You know it ^Fended up real ^Cbad. But ^CI don't miss her anymore, though I ^Gsure do miss her ^Cdad.

He wa^Cs kind of deaf in one ear, so I'd^F kind of have to sh^Cout. We'd t^Calk guns and horses 't^Gil the lights went out. Why, we^C'd stay up 'til midnight, drinking ^Fwhisky and wat^Cer, ^CAnd he'd pretend not to know I was s^Gleeping with his dau^Cghter.

But ^AmI was young and foolish. ^FHow was I to ^Cknow Hey, the ^Cprice I'd for my mistakes was to ^Gup and watch her go? And ^CI don't mind that she went and done what I ^Fguess she had to ^Cdo. No, ^CI don't mind, but I wonder why she ^Ghad to take him ^Ctoo!

But ^CI don't miss her anymore, though I ^Gsure do miss her ^Cdad.
