Four Years of Chances - Margo Price

Well I waited four long winters

Yes I waited in the sun

I was crying all alone

While you were out having fun

I gave you four years of chances

But you threw em all away

I gave you one thousand four hundred sixty one days

I gave you four years of chances

To try to be your wife

I cleaned your shirts

And cooked up your supper

But you stayed up late at night

I gave you four years of chances

To try and fill a happy home

But now one more may as well be

A million and one

And now you know you lost me darling

And you can't me back

Ain't that just like a man

To change so fast

Because you want what you can't have

And now I'm going to say it slowly

Before I got away

You had me one thousand four hundred sixty one days

I gave you four years of chances

To try to be your wife

I cleaned your shirts

And cooked up your supper

But you stayed up late at night

I gave you four years of chances

To try and fill a happy home

But now one more may as well be

A million and one

I found myself a good man now

You know he treats me like he should

We live in a shack by a railroad track

He's out back chopping wood

We don't have have too much money

But I'll tell you why that's okay

He loves me every moment

Of them three hundred sixty five days

I gave you four years of chances

To try to be your wife

I cleaned your shirts

And washed up the dishes

But you never did treat me right

I gave you four years of chances

To try and build a happy home

But now one more may as well be

A million and one

But now one more may as well be a million and one
