[Acoustic Guitar Intro] [Verse 1] Sittin' by the fire and thinkin' to myself In just 3 days she'll be comin' home Short 3 days till she's back in my arms Just 3 days and my baby's back with me [Chorus] 3. Short. Days. Then my baby's back with me and We're gonna be happy again! We'll stroll in the park hand in hand We'll be right back where we left off So long as we forget what went wrong [Verse 2] Stirrin' up those flames, as the memories roll in Rememberin' how I yelled, and she screamed That night of tears and anger, that night she walked away Maybe in 3 days, everything will be different [Acoustic Guitar Interlude] [Chorus] 3. Short. Days. Then my baby's back with me and We're gonna be happy again! We'll stroll in the park hand in hand We'll be right back where we left off So long as we forget what went wrong [Verse 3] Can't exactly remember the trigger Can't recall any of the words Can't bring up the scene again But in 3 days we'll be better [Chorus] 3. Short. Days. Then my baby's back with me and We're gonna be happy again! We'll stroll in the park hand in hand We'll be right back where we left off So long as we forget what went wrong [Piano Interlude] [Verse 4] I think I can remember now Think she wanted me to straighten up Said get right and do right today Else I'm gone in 3 short days [Chorus] 3. Short. Days. Then my baby's back with me and We're gonna be happy again! We'll stroll in the park hand in hand We'll be right back where we left off So long as we forget what went wrong
