I was there in my trailer, down at the job-site

                                  D
The day that this stranger walked in 

                                                   G
His face looked so sad and he carried a set of blueprints
And as I unrolled them the first thing I noticed
                                C
Were there were no doors in the plans

            D
He said if you build this for me, then when she comes back

                                 G
She'll never be able to leave me again
Chorus:
            C
I said if I did, and she ever came back

                                  G
Friend, tell me how would she get in

                                            D  
It would just be a prison that I locked you in

                C
If you couldn't leave you'd never know 
If there was someone who loved you
                        G
The way that she didn't before

                                   D
There's two things that I know for sure
Is that you can't make a woman feel something she don't
                                    G
And you can't build a house with no doors

For a while he was quite, I could tell he was thinking

                            E  
I thought I just ruined his day

                                                      A 
I just couldn't bare to see this man's last hope slip away
So I thought real fast, and I started talking said
                          E  
Buddy, we've tried this before
And if there ain't one she'll make on And either way, she'll run
                                        A
And leave you a house with a hole for a door
Chorus:
            D
I said if I did, and she ever came back

                                  A
Friend, tell me how would she get in

                                            E
It would just be a prison that I locked you in

                D
If you couldn't leave you'd never know 
If there was someone who loved you
                        A
The way that she didn't before

                                   E
There's two things that I know for sure
Is that you can't make a woman feel something she don't
                                    A
And you can't build a house with no doors
No, you can't make a woman feel something she don't
                                    A
And you can't build a house with no doors
