The Unfaithful Servant

• E7

Capo 2  

Intro: E7 D/F#  

G               D/F#    
 Unfaithful Servant,  
A/E                      Am7            C6 
 I hear you leavin' soon in the mornin'  
G                   D/F#             
 What did you do to the lady, 
E7                                   G/A 
 That she's gonna have to send you away?  
G               D/F#     
 Unfaithful servant,  
A/E                      Am7          C6 
You don't have to say you're sorry,  
G                   D/F#           
 If you done it just for the spite,  
E7                    G/A   
 or did ya do it just for the glory?  
Bm/G#                     F#m7  
 Like a stranger you turned your back,  
Am7/E                   G/D      F#7  F#7/A# 
Left your keys and gone to pack.  
Bm                           Gm6  
Bear in mind who's to blame, and all the shame;  
E9/G#                Em7                                      Ebmaj7  
 She really cared, the time she spared and the home you shared.  

Unfaithful servant, I can hear the whistle blowin,  
Yes, that train is a-comin' and soon you'll be goin'.  
Let us not bow our heads for we won't be complainin';  
Life has been good to us all  
even when that sky is rainin'.  
To take it like a grain of salt  
is all I can do. It's no one's fault,  
Makes no diff'rence if we fade away.  
It's just as it was, it's much to cold for me to stay.  

G                    D/F#  
 Goodbye to that country home,  
A/E                        Am7  
 So long to a lady I have known,  
G              D/F#  
 Farewell to my other side,  
E7                 G/A  
 I'd best just take it in stride.  
G               D/F#     
 Unfaithful Servant,  
A/E                 Am7        C6  C/D 
you'll learn to find your place;  
G                 D/F#  
 I can see it in your smile,  
E7                      G/A  
 and, yes, I can see it in your face.  
Bm/G#                   A/F#  
 The mem'ries will linger on,  
Am7/E                          G/D          F#7  F#7/A#  
 But the good old days, they're all gone,  
    Bm                           Gm/A  
Oh! Lonesome servant, can't you see,  
E9/G#                   Em7            Ebmaj7  
 That we're still one and the same, just you and me.
