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"
