Mental cruelty, that's what I heard him say,

Mental cruelty to the judge that day,
                                      F

Your Honor, since our marriage,

My life's not been the same,

I'm missing out on all the fun,
G                   C
And he's the one to blame,

There's never any excitement now,
    F
The way there used to be,

Divorce has been granted,

Even when there's not a reason,

And when no one can be blamed,

She's on her merry way,
