Friendless Marriage
Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis
Capo 2
GOur house never seDemed to be so cCold like this beGfore
But nGow the wind blows fDree between the sCeals and 'neath the dDoor.
And a fGour for a dollar phoDtograph and sChe and I once mDade,
The way she looked at me back then ain't the way she does today.
- OGur friendless maCrriage, hGow our love is gDone.
GNow he don't cCare enough to tGry and save our hDome.
GLord, you know it tCears me up. WhGere do D/F#I belEmong?
With the oDne who doesn't love me or all alGone?
GI can't help but thDink about miCstakes that we have mGade
And I guess when you sDtart out all wrong, you eCnd up the same Dway
To Gme, our love was wDild and free like a rCunaway trDain
We couldn't have no wedding band to hide her daddy's shame
AShe don't seem to sEmile nomore or lDook me in the eAye
He don't say a tEhing at all or hDold me when I cEry
But F#mwe weren't raised to rEun from our respDonsibiliEties
I'll stay for my baby like my momma stayed for me
- OAur friendless maDrriage, hAow our love is gEone.
ANow he don't cDare enough to tAry and save our hEome.
ALord, you know it tDears me up. WhAere do A/G#I belF#mong?
With the oEne who doesn't love me or all alAone?
And oAur house never seEemed to be so coDld like this beAfore.
