This demo clicks along a bit faster than I end up playing it today. But it's got the parts. Hopefully more fleshed recording coming sometime. : )

lyrics

Just that simple
Alicia Healey
6/8 time, rocks between C and C6/D throughout the verses, same on the F with the chorus

C
She’s got one tattoo crawling up her arm
another running down her back
She’s got two boys waiting at home
In a double-wide, down by the track

CHORUS:
F
At night her dreams the same as yours
A good song, a full glass, a smile with a dimple
Ain't too hard to understand
It's just that simple

C
When the day opens up, sometimes it’s hard to get started
But with toast and a shot some are easier than others
She takes longer showers, when her kids are with their dad
And all-in-all the day-to-day isn’t that bad

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
G F | C
Lonely ain’t the same as alone
G F | C
Most times she doesn’t mind at all
G F | C Am | Am
She’s got friends down the street, but she secretly waits
F | % | % | %
For a soft place to fall.

SOLO (over Bridge)


She gave her lower leg for her country
Her waist for kids
Her heart to a bastard from Poulsbo
Who said he’d come back, but never did.

CHORUS
