As recorded by Bobby Bare (From the 1977 Album ME AND McDILL) [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D                                 A           D
He's in some bar a drinkin' she's home alone again

                               A                 D
He's in town buyin' rounds and laughin' with his friends

                                              G
His supper's on the table still he ain't come home

      D                           A                   D
She's lookin' out the window with a front porch light on.
[Chorus]
D                  A           D
She's the woman in every man's life

                       A              D
A candle in the window on the darkest night

                                    G
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife

        D        A           D
She's a woman in every man's life.
[Verse 2]
D                               A           D
She's a standin' in the kitchen ironin' his shirt

                         A                    D
Tears fall on the collar like little drops of hurt

                                              G
When he's spent his money he'll stumble home again

           D                                A        D
And she'll get out bed and turn on light and let him in.
[Chorus]
D                  A           D
She's the woman in every man's life

                       A              D
A candle in the window on the darkest night

                                    G
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife

        D        A           D
She's a woman in every man's life.
[Verse 3]
D                        A         D
Somehow she defends him again and again

                                  A                D
She'll stand up to her mother and hide it from her friends

                                                 G
And somehow she forgives him for all he's guilty of

         D                         A              D
And that takes a lot of woman that takes a lot of love.
[Out-Chorus]
D                  A           D
She's the woman in every man's life

                       A              D
A candle in the window on the darkest night

                                    G
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife

        D        A           D
She's a woman in every man's life.

                   A           D
She's the woman in every man's life

                       A              D
A candle in the window on the darkest night
