She’s got three kids and no husbandC  
She’s two weeks late on last month’s Grent
GShe’s waiting on child support, he keeps swearing that it’s coming
But if Cshe knows him, she knows where it Gwent
And those Dbills ain’t gonna Cpay themsGelves
[Verse]
GIt’s been a forty hour week and it’s only Tuesday
And there’s Chomework and dinner to Gmake
GAnd somebody wants a lullaby, somebody wants a different channel
SomeCbody’s dealing with their first heartGbreak
Those Ddishes in the sink ain’t gonna Cwash themGselves
[Bridge]
She Clights a cigarette out on the Gbalcony
When she Emgets a couple minutes to herseClf
There’s how you plan it out and how it turns Gout to be
And a Embroken home ain’t no fairyGtale
[Verse]
GShe’s got three kids and no husband
And a Chairnet job at a diner down on GMain
GShe knows damn well she don’t make the best cup of coffee
But she’s Cquick with a smile and she's good at Gnames
But those Dlunch tickets ain’t Cgonna tip themGselves
[Bridge]
She Csmokes a cigarette out by the Gloading dock
And tries Emnot to pick the polish off her Cnails
She’s thinking about a guy who’s been coming Gin a lot
She Emstarts to dream and then she stops herGself
[Verse]
GShe’s got three kids and no husband
She’s a Cmom and a dad and a taxi driver
When the Gbaby’s sick she’s an up-all-nighter
A hand and a shoulder and a Greferee
GA real life hero, if you ask me
And those Dkids ain’t gonna Craise themGselves

[Intro]

[Verse]

She’s got three kids and no husband

She’s two weeks late on last month’s rent

She’s waiting on child support, he keeps swearing that it’s coming

C G

But if she knows him, she knows where it went

D C G

And those bills ain’t gonna pay themselves

[Verse]

It’s been a forty hour week and it’s only Tuesday

C G

And there’s homework and dinner to make

And somebody wants a lullaby, somebody wants a different channel

C G

Somebody’s dealing with their first heartbreak

D C G

Those dishes in the sink ain’t gonna wash themselves

[Bridge]

C G

She lights a cigarette out on the balcony

Em C

When she gets a couple minutes to herself

There’s how you plan it out and how it turns out to be

Em G

And a broken home ain’t no fairytale

[Verse]

She’s got three kids and no husband

C G

And a hairnet job at a diner down on Main

She knows damn well she don’t make the best cup of coffee

C G

But she’s quick with a smile and she's good at names

D C G

But those lunch tickets ain’t gonna tip themselves

[Bridge]

C G

She smokes a cigarette out by the loading dock

Em C

And tries not to pick the polish off her nails

She’s thinking about a guy who’s been coming in a lot

Em G

She starts to dream and then she stops herself

[Verse]

She’s got three kids and no husband

She’s a mom and a dad and a taxi driver

When the baby’s sick she’s an up-all-nighter

A hand and a shoulder and a referee

A real life hero, if you ask me

D C G

And those kids ain’t gonna raise themselves
