G                           D7                            G
I couldn't hear you for the TV I didn't know you said goodbye
                                  C                                 D7
I saw your canceled check for the airfare didn't know flying got so high
G                        D7                             G
Beans for breakfast once again hard to eat 'em from the can
                      C         D7                          G
I've run out of clean utensils  I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
                             D7                                   G
I heard the crows outside my window guess it's me they're talking about
                               C                                  D7
The fire you lit has burned to cinders every good thing's fizzled out
G                        D7                             G
Beans for breakfast once again hard to eat 'em from the can
                                  C       D7                          G
Wish you'd come back and wash the dishes  I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
                               D7                               G
Caught a cold with the windows open crow droppings on my window sill
                      C                           D7
Probably got Histoplasmosis got no gun or I would kill them crows
G                        D7                             G
Beans for breakfast once again hard to eat 'em from the can
                           C      D7                          G
Plastic forks are a dime a dozen  I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
                       D7                                G
Finally made it to the mailbox felt so bad I thought I'd die
                            C                                   D7
All I got was a bill from a doctor well I guess flying ain't so high
G                        D7                             G
Beans for breakfast once again hard to eat 'em from the can
                            C       D7                          G
Blue tick mattress cold and greasy  I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
                              D7                                  G
The house burnt down from the fire that I built in your closet by mistake
                      C                                        D7
After I took all them pills but I got out safe in my duck head overalls
G                        D7                                G
Beans for breakfast once again I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
