it was on the tip of het tounge but she

did not say a word
C#                                   F#
why did she sometimes take shit that she did
       A
not deserve
Eii                      B                 C#
she wore a smile on her face as a disguise
                  F#     A
to hide the tears in her eyes
E   C#       A            F#  B
and she just let the time go by


Eii                     B                        C#
she turned away so that no one would see her sad
                              F#        A 
where had that love gone that they once had
Eii                 B             C#
she only cried when she was alone

when her husband and the children were not home
E   C#       A            F# B
and she just let the time go by


Eii                  
but one day that she
Es/Bii (move only your wisefinger one fred to the left) 
had enough
C#                       B
packed here things, went out that door
     A                        G#/Eii
I've seen the pictures of when she was young
        A              B
of that happy girl she was before
Eii            ES/Bii
she met the man of her dreams
C#               B
fell in love and suddenly
    A                  G#/Eii
she found herself in a situation
    A                  B
she though she'd never be
    Eii   Es/Bii  C#   B     A              G#/Eii  A      B
but I,                     I know that she's better off today


Eii  B   C#   F#    Eii   B   C#  Eii


Eii           B
All the times all those years
C#                F#       A
so little joy and too many tears
Eii                B
all the sacrafices she had made for him
C#                            A                   B
all the things she'd given up just to please that man
    Eii                        G#               
but now that she is on her own she can smile again
     A               B                  Eii
just like that happy girl that she once was
