 You don't need to have a set pattern for these, just play them whenever you think
 they'll fit.
I  hear  she got a man and he gotta little money
 And I know  that ain't why she calls him honey
 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
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 Am:

E-3-3-3-2-0----------------|
 Then start playing the chorus:
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'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...

[Cmaj7]I hear[E] she got a man and he gotta little money

Ain't lyin' awake at night thinkin' of me
Oh no but she might be
She might be

[Cmaj7]Waitin[E]' for the day she can c[G]ome back home
