[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
C G You sat at home G The windows tinted black C G It hits you hard G And you cried so long C G Life turned and wandered C Never to come back, again C Take what she gives you D Don't feel sorry for her
[Verse 2]
C G When you fell out G Out of the Starlight Inn C G You were too hurt to walk G Too bad to begin C G I looked at the sign G C But I couldn't feel sad for you C Take what she gives you D Don't cry, when you kiss her
[Pre-Chorus]
G Poor little girl D Ran away for good Em I try to explain D Why she won't say a thing G Sad, sad thing D I'm so far away now Em How can I say D Why she won't talk at all
[Chorus]
G She holds the deck of cards D She wants to be alone G D I've been very ill and I tried waking up G D C D G Now, I want to be alone
[Verse 3]
C G When you ran out G Out of Petes' Hotel C G You didn't look so good G And you didn't feel so well C G You said, "Hold me tight" C But I couldn't get it right C Take what she gives you D Don't feel sorry for her
[Pre-Chorus]
G Poor little girl D Ran away for good Em I try to explain D Why she won't say a thing G Sad, sad thing D I'm so far away now Em How can I say D Why she won't talk at all
[Out-Chorus]
G She holds the deck of cards D She wants to be alone G She still drinks in the dark D The radio is left on late G She saw a madman fight D And break it all D 'Cause she hated himself G And she felt better off D C D G C G 'Cause she was only drunk
