   There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
Dbm7                    Gbm
     She's got a broken heart
Bm                               E
   She's not the kind to take you down for long
Dbm7                        Gbm
     She knows and plays it smart


Bm                  E      Dbm7            Gbm
-Ah--- And if she's comin' she's showed no mark
Bm                    E              Dbm7      Gbm
-Ah--- She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
Bm                    E              Dbm7        Gbm
-Ah--- She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
Bm                                     E7
-Ah--- Without no Bridges she's trapped, so I sigh

You were on your own

You'll lose yourself and then sometime
