   There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
Dm7                    Gm
     She's got a broken heart
Cm                               F
   She's not the kind to take you down for long

-Ah--- And if she's comin' she's showed no mark
Cm                    F              Dm7      Gm
-Ah--- She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
Cm                    F              Dm7        Gm
-Ah--- She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
Cm                                     F7
-Ah--- Without no Bridges she's trapped, so I sigh
