[Verse 1]
I wDake up in the morning is a state of fright
On the wrong side of the bed all night
CliGnging to the broken heart Inside my hDead
I oGpen my eyes and I mAove my hand
From 'rGound her pillow to the nigAhtstand
And stGraighten Miss Emily's pAicture by my bDed
[Verse 2]
GDo to the office; the work's piled up
Pour thDree fingers bourbon in my coffee cup
Cry Gon my best friend's shoulder down the hDall
FGeel so lonely, when I cAlose the door
BGite my nails and I wAalk the floor
And sGtraighten Miss Emily's piActure on my wDall
[Chorus]
LDook out my window and wGhat do I sDee
NotDhing but pain looking baAck at me D
All that my future mGeans to Dme
Is tosEmsing yesterday's love out into the wGind
And straighten Miss Emily's picAture now and tDhen
[Verse 3]
I leDave my office and I go downtown
To a little bar we all hang around
LaGugh drink beer -shoot pool and have a bDall
When the laGughter stops and the hAurt takes hold
RGeach in my pocket for Amy billfold
And sGhow Miss Emily's piActure to em' aDll
[Verse 4]
I sDtagger in the house and I slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
WishGing I could do the same thing in my hDead
DrGink a beer and I eAat a bite
And jGust before I turn oAut the light
I stGraighten Miss Emily's pAicture by my bDed
[Chorus]
LoDok out my window and wGhat do I sDee
NotDhing but pain looking bAack at mDe
All that my future meGans to Dme
Is tEmossing yesterday's love out into the wind
And straighten Miss Emily's piActure now and tDhen
