Mental Cruelty
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
G G C
[Chorus]
C C7 F
Mental cruelty, that's what I heard him say
G C
Mental cruelty, to the judge that day
C C7 F
I sat there in silence so he could be free
G C
And listened to his lying words, mental cruelty
[Verse 1]
C F
Your Honor, since our marriage, my life ain't been the same
G C
I'm missin' out on all the fun, and he's the one to blame
C F
There's never any excitement now, the way there used to be
G
And sharing his way of life and doin' his laundry
C
Is mental cruelty
[Chorus]
C C7 F
Mental cruelty, that's what I heard her say
G C
Mental cruelty, to the judge that day
C C7 F
I sat there in silence so she could be free
G C
And listened to her lying words, mental cruelty
[Verse 2]
C F
Divorces have been granted for many different things
G C
Even when there's not a reason and no one can be blamed
C F
With only two little words she's on her merry way
G C
Yes all a woman has to claim is mental cruelty
[Chorus]
C C7 F
Mental cruelty, that's what I heard her say
G C
Mental cruelty, to the judge that day
C C7 F
I sat there in silence so she could be free
G C
And listened to her lying words, mental cruelty
G C G C
And listened to her lying words, mental cruelty
