I had plenty of keys on my key ring
A beautiful home I had everything
With a lovin' wife and a car to drive
I came home from work every day at five
And one by one I started losin' them keys
My darling wife I just couldn't please
My boss got on my nerves one day
I knew that I was on my way
horus
I lost my wife, I lost my home
Quit my job, and set out alone
With just one key on my key chain
I'm gonna start all over again
She finally decided we just couldn't be
She wanted things I just couldn't see
She said, I'm tired of waiting around
(1) D (2) without s5
She took the last train out of town
Repeat chorus
(15) lead break
Well the bankers came and took the key to my home
Just one key left from all I ever owned
I'm turning that key lettin' out the clutch
I never did like this town that much
Repeat chorus
Licks
Note for lick (5) :
4s5 I fret the B string 3rd fret with my index finger and the G string 4th
fret with the middle finger. Then I hammer the B string 5th fret with
my ring finger. This could also be played using slides for both
instead of the hammer. I prefer the combo slide/hammer.
