And so she wakes up 
Em         C 
in time to break down

She left a note up on the dresser 
Em         C 
and she's right on time

'cause it's all that you've got 
Em                       G 
You'd be better off just up and leaving 
       Am                    C 
if you don't think they will stop 

G                   D
