Take A Letter Maria

A               D                          A
Last night as I got home about a half past ten
                      D
There was the woman I thought I knew
                       A
In the arms of another man
                  D
I kept my cool, I ain't no fool
                              A
Let me tell you what happened then
                          D
I packed some clothes and I walked out
                         A
And I ain't going back a gain

          A             Asus A  G
So take a letter Maria, ad dress it to my wife
D                                     A                Asus A
Say I won't be coming home, I'm gonna start a new life
                        Asus A  G
So take a letter Maria, ad dress it to my wife
       D                        A                Asus A
Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta start a new life

            A               D                               A
You've been many things but most of all a good secretary to me
                         D                                  A
And it's times like this I feel you've always been close to me
            D                                     A
Was I wrong to work nights to try to build a good life
             D                          A
All work and no play has just cost me a wife

          A             Asus A  G

       A           D                          A
When a man loves a woman it's hard to underst and
                         D                               A
That she would find more pleasure in the arms of another man
                       D                    A
I never really noticed how sweet you are to me
                       D
It just so happens I'm free tonight
                                   A
Would you like to have dinner with me
