D
She wakes up in the morning
To a kettle on the stove
Peeling wallpaper,  
House next to a dusty road

G
She prays, "Oh Lord
                             D
Don't let these walls fall down"

'Cause she's got no money
But she works like hell
She loved him like a lady
Never did her too well

G
She prays, "Oh Lord
                             D
Don't let these walls fall down"

       A                   G   
'Cause it's been so damn hard
                     D
Since her man left town
                    A
Says, "I've been thinking
             G
I've been thinking
            A                   G
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
                        D
For such a long, long time"

And she can't help but wonder
On those rainy Saturdays
Where he is and where he's been
Is another trapped in his haze?

G
She prays, "Oh Lord
                            D
Don't let these walls fall down"

'Cause she's not lonely
And she's learned to get along
How many years will it take
Before he is really gone?

G
She prays, "Oh Lord
                            D
Don't let these walls fall down"

       A                   G   
'Cause it's been so damn hard
                     D
Since her man left town
                    A
Says, "I've been thinking
             G
I've been thinking
            A                   G
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
                        D
For such a long, long time"

                    A
Says, "I've been thinking
             G
I've been thinking
            A                   G
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
                        D
For such a long, long time"

                     A
Says, "I've been thinking
             G
I've been thinking
            A                   G
I've been thinking 'bout you, baby
                        D
For such a long, long time"
