Interlude 1

Verse 2
A A 
 
And the rose was exalted
E E 
 
B B 
 
in the palm of her hand
E E 
 
A A 
 
Along with her fist
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
and the beer in her can
A A 
 
As she barnstormed outside
E E 
 
B B 
 
like a witch on a broom
A A 
 
E E 
 
And shot a polished middle finger
B B 
 
E E 
 
to that man in the moon
A A 
 
E E 
 
Singin' hi's to the angel
B B 
 
and lo's to the hawk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
I'm a woman in need of
B B 
 
a twenty -minute talk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
With a pine -paneled wall
B B 
 
or a sugar cane stalk
E E 
 
A A 
 
Got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
and he's fixin' to walk
A A 
 
You see I loved him for centuries
B B 
 
it seems to me now
E E 
 
A A 
 
She told the bartender
E E 
 
B B 
 
as he was wiping his brow
E E 
 
A A 
 
He was honest and simple
E E 
 
B B 
 
at least that's how he appeared
E E 
 
A A 
 
And he was pretty good
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
looking for a guy around here
A A 
 
But God, did he scare me
E E 
 
B B 
 
when he closed up inside
E E 
 
A A 
 
And would sit there for hours
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
like his whole world had died
A A 
 
G#m G#m 
 
Silent and breathless
B B 
 
E E 
 
like he'd punctured his lungs
A A 
 
E E 
 
Till his mouth became his quiver
B B 
 
and his sword became his tongue
E E 
 
A A 
 
And then I  became his target
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
Cause his anger wouldn't melt,
no poem ever written
B B 
 
E E 
 
can describe how that felt
A A 
 
E E 
 
Singing highs to the angels
B B 
 
and lows to the hawk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
I'm a woman in need of
B B 
 
a twenty minute talk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
With a pine panel wall or
B B 
 
a sugar cane stalk
E E 
 
A A 
 
I  got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
and he's fixing to walk
A A 
 
That bartender slammed
G#m G#m 
 
B B 
 
down  his fist with a shout
E E 
 
A A 
 
And said, I'll have one with you,
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
you're wearin' me out
A A 
 
As a smile leaked out
E E 
 
B B 
 
of one silver -capped tooth
E E 
 
A A 
 
He said, I'm not too busy,
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
let's sit down in this booth
A A 
 
As a warm wind blew in
E E 
 
B B 
 
like a  sweet baby's breath
E E 
 
A A 
 
Then an angel appeared
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
and took one look and left.
A A 
 
She said, God, I'm so selfish,
E E 
 
F#m F#m 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
I could not let   it pass.
A A 
 
I swarmed his convictions
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
and I  badgered his ass.
A A 
 
E E 
 
It's like he poured some concrete
G#m G#m 
 
B B 
 
and   left it in the yard.
E E 
 
A A 
 
And I despise what he's doing,
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
so I just let it get hard.
A A 
 
E E 
 
Singin' highs to the angels
B B 
 
and lows to the hawk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
I'm a woman in need of
B B 
 
a twenty minute talk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
B B 
 
With a pine panel wall or a sugar cane stalk
E E 
 
A A 
 
I got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
and he's fixin' to walk

Well her silence

Verse 3
A A 
 
was broken
C#m C#m 
 
B B 
 
by the   late night crowd
E E 
 
A A 
 
G#m G#m 
 
When the regulars came in,
B B 
 
well everybody got loud
E E 
 
A A 
 
She was sobering up,
G#m G#m 
 
B B 
 
without one trace of sorrow
E E 
 
A A 
 
When the bartender called out,
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
Will I see you tomorrow?
A A 
 
She said, probably not,
E E 
 
B B 
 
if I can find my old man
E E 
 
A A 
 
He said, leave him alone
E E 
 
B B 
 
She said, you don't understand
E E 
 
A A 
 
That's what I've been doing
E E 
 
B B 
 
That's the horse I've been riding
E E 
 
A A 
 
You see the fear I've
been showing
E E 
 
B B 
 
That's the fear he's been hiding
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
So I've been no better,
B B 
 
but he's no less a fool
E E 
 
A A 
 
I'm gonna bust him for that,
E E 
 
B B 
 
but he can bust me too
E E 
 
A A 
 
And then he'll take his choice
E E 
 
G#m G#m 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
if he    wants to slam the door
A A 
 
At least he'll slam the door
E E 
 
B B 
 
E E 
 
he was worth fighting for
A A 
 
E E 
 
Singin' hi's to the angels
B B 
 
and lo's to the hawk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
I'm a woman in need of a
B B 
 
twenty minute talk
E E 
 
A A 
 
E E 
 
B B 
 
With a pine panel wall or a sugar cane stalk
E E 
 
A A 
 
I  got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
and he's fixin' to walk
E E 
 
A A 
 
I got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
and he's fixin' to walk
E E 
 
A A 
 
I  got a man out there somewhere
E E 
 
B B 
 
and he's fixin' to walk
E E
