Boom chica rhythm D D U D D U
[Verse]
G C G
Well I don't miss her anymore, the way that I used to.
G D
Was a time when my heart was broke, but somehow I got through.
G C G
Still, her father became my best friend, that's one thing for sure.
G D G
Funny how I miss him, a lot more than her.
[Chorus]
Em C G
"How's Ernie?", hey that's what I would say,
G D
If I wrote her a letter or I called her up one day.
Em C G
"How's Ernie?" You know it ended up real bad.
G D G
But I don't miss her anymore, though I sure do miss her dad.
[Verse]
G C G
He was kind of deaf in one ear, so I'd kind of have to shout.
G D
We'd talk guns and horses 'til the lights went out.
G C G
Why, we'd stay up 'til midnight, drinking whisky and water,
G D G
And he'd pretend not to know I was sleeping with his daughter.
[Chorus]
G C G
But I was young and foolish. How was I to know
G D
Hey, the price I'd for my mistakes was to up and watch her go?
G C G
And I don't mind that she went and done what I guess she had to do.
G D G
No, I don't mind, but I wonder why she had to take him too!
[Chorus]
[OUTRO]
G D G
But I don't miss her anymore, though I sure do miss her dad.
