Verse 1
(C major) She looks at the clock,
it's a (G major) quarter past nine.
(A minor) She hears his car as he pulls (F major)
in the drive. (G major)
(C major) Dinner's still waiting from (G major) hours before.
She (D minor) knows he's (D major) been drinking
when he (G major) walks through the door.
In (D minor) anger he strikes out
and she (G major) starts to cry.
How much more (D minor) can she take,
how much more (G major) can
She lie.
Verse 2
And she (C major) fell down the (F major) stairs (G major) again.
But (A minor) it hasn't (E minor) happened since
(F major) she don't know (G major) when.
(F major) Was it in spring when she packed (G major) up the kids,
or
(D minor) Maybe in winter with his job (G major)
on the skids.
Oh but just (A minor) like before (E minor)
she'll (F major) have to
Pretend that she fell (D minor) down the stairs (G major) (C major) again.

Verse 3
A (C major) short time ago, she (G major) started
A job, serving (A minor) chicken fried
steak and (F major) corn on the (G major) cob.
She (C major) started out shy,
but she (G major) ended (E minor) up sure, (G major)
That a (D major) ticket to anywhere
could (G major) be the cure.
But (D minor) he couldn't handle
her change (G major) for the better.
(D minor) She tried to leave him (A minor) , but he
(G major) wouldn't let her. (D minor) (G major)
(F major) He says he's sorry, he'd (G major) never mean it.
He (C major) swears it won't (G major) happen again. (A minor)
But (F major) she's so confused,
She (G major) wants to believe it. She (D minor) just
wants this nightmare to (G major) end.
Verse 4
And she (C major) fell down the (F major) stair (G major) again.
But (A minor) it hasn't (E minor) happened since
(F major) she don't know (G major) when.
(F major) Was it in spring when she packed (G major) up the kids,
or
(D minor) Maybe in winter with his job (G major)
on the skids.
Oh but (A minor) (E minor) (F major) (D minor) (G major) (C major) (A minor) just like be (E minor) fore
she'll (F major) have to pretend
That she fell (D minor) down the stairs (G major) (C major) again.
