A            E       B                  Bm7
Unfaithful Servant, I hear you leavin' soon in the mornin'
A              E              F#7                     B7sus4
What did you do to the lady, that she's gonna have to send you away?
A            E       B             Bm7
Unfaithful servant, you don't have to say you're sorry,
A                E               F#7               B7sus4
If you done it just for the spite, or did ya do it just for the glory?
A#dim7              G#m7
Like a stranger you turned your back,
 Bm7                A       G#7
Left your keys and gone to pack.
C#m                    Am6
Bear in mind who's to blame, and all the shame;
F#7              F#m7                Fmaj7
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 a-goin'
Need 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 and it's no one's fault
It makes no diff'rence if we fade away
It's just as it was
And it's much to cold for me to stay

Goodbye to that country home, so long, lady I have known
Farewell to my other side, I'd best just take it in stride
Unfaithful servant, you'll learn to find your place
I can see it in your smile, and, yes, I can see it in your face
The mem'ries will linger on
But the good old days, they're all gone
Oh, lonesome servant, can't you see
We're still one and the same
Just you and me
