*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Slaid Cleaves - Key Chain
INTRO: G  
I had plenty of keys on my key ring
A beautiful home, I had everyDthing
With a loving Cwife and a car to Gdrive
I came home from work Devery day at Gfive
And one by one I started losing them keys
My darling wife, I just couldn't Dplease
My boss got Con my nerves one Gday
I knew that I Dwas on my Gway
CHORUS:
I lost my Cwife, I lost my Ghome
Quit my Djob and set out aGlone
With just one Ckey on my key Gchain
I'm gonna Dstart all over aGgain
She finally decided, we just couldn't be
She wanted things I just couldn't Dsee
She said, "I'm Ctired of waiting aGround"
She took the last Dtrain out of Gtown
CHORUS:
I lost my Cwife, I lost my Ghome
Quit my Djob and set out aGlone
With just one Ckey on my key Gchain
I'm gonna Dstart all over aGgain
INSTRUMENTAL:      G     D      C     G    D  G  
Well the bankers came and took the key to my home
Just one key left from all I ever Downed
I'm turning that Ckey, letting out the Gclutch
I never did like Dthis town that Gmuch
CHORUS:
I lost my Cwife, I lost my Ghome
Quit my Djob and set out aGlone
With just one Ckey on my key Gchain
I'm gonna Dstart all over aGgain
