You don't need to have a set pattern for these, just play them whenever you think 
they'll fit.


G
I hear she got a man and he gotta little money
And I know that ain't why she calls him honey
       C
But it might be
It might be

I'm smart enough to know that a woman so free
Ain't lyin' awake at night thinkin' of me
Oh no but she might be
She might be

F                           C          G
Waitin' for the day she can come back home

Word on the street is he ain't no joke
A bonafied G.I. Joe
Nothin' like me
Nothin' like me

His hands are bloody but they ain't sore
From puttin' holes in closet doors
Cause he can't breathe
He can't breathe

He ain't waitin' for the day that she'll come back home

Before the chorus ("What's the hurry Momma?"), While still on the G chord, Chris plays a 
sort of run on the bass notes transitioning to the Em:

e-3-3-3--------------------|
B-3-3-3--------------------|
G-0-0-0---0----------------|
D-0-0-0-0-2----------------|
A-2-2-2-0-2----------------|
E-3-3-3-2-0----------------|

Then start playing the chorus:


Em               G
What's the hurry Momma?
D                          C
Take your time when you're breakin' my heart and
Em             G
You're barely outta sight
D                        C
And now you say I gotta brand new start and
Em             G
And I've been near and far
D                   C
Everywhere it's the same old blues
Em           G
The hardest part of sorrow
D                     C
Is knowin' she ain't feelin' it too
              C
Oh no but she might be
           G
Yeah she might be...

I've never been much on speakin' the truth
Just your everyday undereloquent fool
But I can't lie
I can't lie

Need you to stay but you're already gone
My own ghost of Christmas wrongs
But I'm still here
I'm still here

Still waitin' for the day that she'll change her mind

I ain't no stranger to the dangers of lust
Givin' in and givin' up
They know me so well
So well

I know he's all that she could need but the
Best thing is he isn't me
And its a damn shame
A damn shame

I'm waitin for the day that she'll change her mind

What's the hurry Momma?
Take your time when you're breakin' my heart and
You're barely outta sight
And now you say I gotta brand new start and
And I've been near and far
Everywhere it's the same old blues
The hardest part of sorrow
Is knowin' she ain't feelin' it too
Oh no but she might be
Yeah she might be...

I'm smart enough to know that a woman so free
Ain't lyin' awake at night thinkin' of me
Oh no but she might be...
