Last Thing I Needed First Thing This Morning
Gary P. Nunn

A                   E
Postman delivered a past due bill notice
D                    A         E
The alarm clock rang two hours late
    A                        E
The garbage man left all the trash on the sidewalk
        D           A          E
And the hinges fell off of the gate
     D          C#m           D               C#m
This mornin' at breakfast, I spilled all the coffee
  A          E          F#m
I opened the door on my knee
    D                   A                F#m
The last thing I needed first thing this mornin'
       E                    A
Was to have you walk out on me

D   A   F#m   E   A   E

A                                   E
Last night you came home late and I knew you'd been drinkin'
        D           A            E
By that old, mellow look on your face
A                                              E
But I thought, It don't matter 'cause it's the Holiday season
        D           A         E
And you fill such a big empty space
    D          C#m             D             C#m
And I lay down beside you and I wanted your lovin'
       A               E             F#m
'Cause your love makes my life complete
    D                   A                F#m
The last thing I needed first thing this morning
       E                    A
Was to have you walk out on me

     D           Bm      D       Bm         A
So excuse me for lookin' like my world just ended
   D          Bm      D           Bm           A
Excuse me for lookin' like I just lost my best friend
  D           Bm            D                   Bm                 A
Excuse me for livin' and be forgivin' - Just go on if you wanna be free
        D                   A                F#m
But the last thing I needed first thing this mornin'
       E                    A
Was to have you walk out on me
