    C
The last time that I saw her

        F        A7      D7
She was standing in the rain

With her overcoat under her arm

Leaning on a horsehead cane

         C
She said Carl, take all the money

           F    A7    D7
She called everybody Carl

   G
My spirit's broke, my mind's a joke

                      C
And getting up's real hard
[Chorus]
          F
Don't you know her when you see her?

         C               F
She grew up in your back yard

Selling bibles at the airports

Buying Quaaludes on the phone

Hey, you talk about a paper route

                          C
She's a shut in without a home

    C
God save her, please, she's nailed her knees

        F         A7       D7
To some drugstore parking lot

Hey, Mr. Brown, turn the volume down

I believe this evening's shot
[Chorus]

Can't you picture her next Thursday?

Can you picture her at all?

In the Hotel Boulderado

                       C
At the dark end of the hall

        C
I gotta shake myself and wonder

        F    A7       D7
Why she even bothers me

       G
For if heartaches were commercials

                 C
We'd all be on T.V.
