Verse 1:
     E
Hey, mama
                                A
How do you get a red wine stain out of your favorite dress
     Dbm              B
Black  mascara off a pillow case
       A
Cure a one too many headache
E
Mama, can I come and maybe stay a few days
A
This weekend and next
        Dbm                  B              A
And hey,   how do you get a red wine stain out of your favorite dress
 
Chorus:
            E
How does he sleep at night
          A
Mama, the nerve of this guy
        Dbm          B
To leave   me so eas-y
             A
Am I gonna be  alright
            Dbm           B
I wanna kick  myself for falling so hard
  A                              E       A
Ma-ma, can you die from a broken heart
 
Verse 2:
    E
Can you ask daddy if he's got time to
A
Come and look at my front door
       Dbm                 B
It got slammed last night
           A
And now it don't close right
         E
And just promise that you won't tell him everything
        A
And keep  that pistol in the drawer
      Dbm               B
Mama, please don't say
          A
I'm gonna laugh about this someday
           A
You didn't see the way he drove away
 
Chorus:
            E
How does he sleep at night
          A
Mama, the nerve of this guy
        Dbm          B
To leave   me so eas-y
             A
Am I gonna be  alright
            Dbm           B
I wanna kick  myself for falling so hard
  A                              E       A
Ma-ma, can you die from a broken heart
               Dbm       B  A
Whoo, a broken heart
 
Bridge:
         Dbm
Can your knees give out from praying so hard?
    B
Can you go blind from crying in the dark?
       A                            A
Was it ever really real if he don't feel how I feel?
 
Chorus:
            E
How does he sleep at night
          A
Mama, the nerve of this guy
        Dbm       B
To leave   me so easy
              A
Am I gonna be  alright
 

            E
How does he sleep at night
          A
Mama, the nerve of this guy
        Dbm          B
To leave   me so eas-y
             A
Am I gonna be  alright
            Dbm           B
I wanna kick  myself for falling so hard
  A                              E       A
Ma-ma, can you die from a broken heart
             Dbm       B       A
Oh, a broken heart...    ah-ah
