Kids say the darndest things,

                 D                                      D7

have you ever listened close to the games they play,

            G                      G7

or the little songs they sing.

 

              F                                                                     C        C7       A

1. Last night dressed up in high-heeled shoes, and wearing my old hat,

            D                          D7

    my four-year-old said,       “I wanna divorce!”

                  G                         G7

    Now, where did she hear that?     + CHORUS

 

      F                                          C                   C7            A

2. Last night as I watched TV, one rushed through the door,

        D                                              D7

    „Mommy, Dad`s telling someone on the phone,

                       G                       G7

    `Don`t you call me here no more!`“     + CHORUS

 

     F                                                            C            C7     A

3. “If my daddy can whip your daddy, but daddy`s never home,

         D                                                                 G                          G7

  and I think, mum is worried `bout him, `cause she cried all night long.”

 

+ CHORUS

 

              F

    You never know what they learn at school,

              C                 C7       A

    and what they`re thinking of.

            D                                D7

    My first-grader just said a four-letter word,

           G                       G7

    and it sure wasn`t `love`.     + CHORUS      + CHORUS ....
