Verse:
F/CShe opens every doCor 
F/CNever calls you by your naCme 
F/CAnd when you say it's time to gCo 
G*                 G*
She looks at you like you?re insane 
F/CBut when she hears you plaCy
F/CShe tries to sing alonCg

Until it's time for me to go 
She only cries at night 
When the children are gone 
She gets up to wipe away her eyes 
In the blue light of the dawn 
Laying on your chest 
She's like a tiny cat 
Brought up and broken on the street
You know shes the only one that even knows where you're at 
You say I don't turn you on 
Until it's time for me to go 
She says crawl over here 
I got something else to say 
Poring whiskey in your coffee cup 
She says I swore you liked it that way 
She tells you how to stay alive 
Acting like she's cleaning up your place 
You can see every single star in the sky 
Written on the expression of her lonely face 
You say I don't turn you on 
Until it's time for me to go
