Intro  D Dsus2 D G D Dsus2 D G D Dsus2 D G A Asus2 A Asus2 G Em


Em                              A  Asus2 A   Asus2
There`s a little girl out lyin` on her   own
F#m             F#m7 A6/9  Bm
She`s got a broken         heart
Em                                A    Asus2 A    Asus2
   She`s not the kind to take you down for   long
F#m                    F#m7 Bm    Bm7
   She knows and plays it   smart
Em              A      Asus2 F#m    A6/9 Bm
   And if she`s comin` she`s showed no   mark
Em                A       Asus2   F#m      Bm
   She`s heard no whistle blowin` from the dark
Em                A           Asus2 F#m   F#m7 Bm
   She feels like leavin` and she   don`t know why
Em                          G6/9     A  Asus2 F#m7
   Without no bridges she`s trapped, so I     sigh
D                  G            D     Dadd11 G6/9 G
   Don`t cross the river if you can`t swim   the  tide
D               G           D      Dadd11 G
   Don`t try denyin` livin` on the other  side
