#1: 
C
Tonight I am aching my body is shaking  
C                            G
Tonight Carmen's coming back home  
G
Tonight there'll be no room for tears in my bedroom  
  G7                         C
Tonight Carmen's coming back home  
C
Tonight as I stand here I notice my hand here  
       C7               F
Is trembling as never before  
F                          C
My feelings I can't hide resistance has all died  
   G                                      G7                C
My pride will rush outside the moment she walks through the door 
#2:
C
The lips that have kissed her that's loved her and missed her  
C                                G
Are lips that have cursed her at night
G
In anguish and torment I've cursed as the night went  
G7                               C
From darkness till dawn's golden light  
C
I've thought of just taking these two hands and breaking  
         C7             F
The body I'm waiting to touch
F                                C
I find while I'm waiting there's no time for hating
      G                      G7             C
While anticipating the woman I've wanted so much

C#
I've placed pretty flowers to brighten the hours  
C#                               G#
I've put brand new sheets on the bed  
G#
I'm nervous I'm trembling recalling remembering  
    G#7                     C#
The way that she tosses her head  
C#
I've given much thought to the fact that I ought to  
     C#7                  F#
Have more control over my life  
F#                     C#
How can I fight it how can I deny it  
        G#                                G#7         C#
There's no way to hide it the love that I have for my wife
