[Opening]
[Am] [G] [Em] [F] [Dm] [Em] [Dm] [G]
[Am]All alone she was living, in a [G]world without an end or beginning
[Em]Babygirl was living life for the feeling, but I don’t [F]mind, I don’t mind
[Am]And all the wrongs she committed, she was [G]numb and she was so co-dependent
She was [Em]young and all she had was the city, but I don’t [F]mind, I don’t mind

[chorus]
And I [F]know that she’s capable of [G]anything, it’s riveting
But [Dm]when you wake up she’s always [Dm]gone, gone, [F]gone

[chorus]
[Am]In the night she hears him calling, [G]in the night she’s dancing to [Em]relieve the pain
She’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you [Am]understand), in the night when she comes crawling
[G]Dollar bills and tears keep falling [Em]down her face, she’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you understand)

[section 2]
[Am]He sang a song when he did it, he was [G]cold and he was so unforgiving
Now she [Em]dances to the song on the minute, yeah, all the [F]time, all the time
[Am]It make her weak when she hear it, and it [G]got her on her knees like religion
She was [Em]young and she was forced to be a woman, yeah, all the [F]time, all the time

[chorus]
And I [F]know that she’s capable of [G]anything, it’s riveting
But [Dm]when you wake up she’s always [Dm]gone, gone, [F]gone

[chorus]
[Am]In the night she hears him calling, [G]in the night she’s dancing to [Em]relieve the pain
She’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you [Am]understand), in the night when she comes crawling
[G]Dollar bills and tears keep falling [Em]down her face, she’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you understand)

[Closing]
(I don’t think you [G]understand), (I don’t think you [Em]understand)
(I don’t think, I don’t think, [F]I don’t think, I don’t think), I don’t think you [Am]understand

[chorus]
In the night she hears him calling, [G]in the night she’s dancing to [Em]relieve the pain
She’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you [Am]understand), in the night when she comes crawling
[G]Dollar bills and tears keep falling [Em]down her face, she’ll never [F]walk away (I don’t think you understand)
