Dirty Laundry

Intro: Am

Am
That lipstick on your collar, well, it ain't my shade of pink
          Em
And I can tell by the smell of that perfume, it's like forty dollars too cheap
              Am
And there's a little wine stain on the pocket of your white cotton thread
           Em
Well, you drink beer and whiskey, boy, and you know I don't drink red

C
Found it over in the corner, wadded up on the bedroom floor
Dm
You shoulda hid it in the closet, you shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

    Am
Now I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Em
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Am                                                 Em
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
         (Am)
All those midnights sneaking in, "I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
                                                            Am
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry


Am
If the neighbors get to asking, I won't cover nothin' up
     Em
I'll tell 'em every little detail, how you drug me through the mud
          Am
I'm gonna string up your old button-down and slide it on the porch
Em
Just in case you get the nerve to come knockin' on my door


      Am
Yeah, I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Em
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Am                                                 Em
Leave 'em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
          (Am)
All those midnights sneaking in, "I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
                                                          Am    Em    Am
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry

C

    Am
Now I'ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Em                                 C
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Am                                                 Em

         (Am)
All those midnights sneaking in, "I'm late again, oh, I'm so sorry"
                                                            Am
All the Ajax in the world ain't gonna clean your dirty laundry
        Em

        Am     Em     Am
(To the line)
