   There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
Bm7                    Em
     She's got a broken heart
Am                               D
   She's not the kind to take you down for long
Bm7                        Em
     She knows and plays it smart


Am                  D      Bm7            Em
-Ah--- And if she's comin' she's showed no mark
Am                    D              Bm7      Em
-Ah--- She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
Am                    D              Bm7        Em
-Ah--- She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
Am                                     D7
-Ah--- Without no Bridges she's trapped, so I sigh

  Don't cross the river if you can't swim the tide
G             C            G            C
  Don't try denyin' livin' on the other side

All your life
         C  F    C   Am  Bm7  Em
You were on your own


Em                  C       G

You'll lose yourself and then sometime
           G7                 C
Maybe even save yourself some grievin'
