Sits in his car and stares at his gun
   F#
He wipes the the blood from his shirt

The sweat from his brow

F#                B
No one to hold no one to care

Stands on the corner like she used to do
F#                                 G#m
She's been away awhile so she's a little afraid
         E                           B
And the judge said he didn't want to see her again
     E                        B
But she's got no money she's got no rent
    F#                  B
The money she had is already spent
        F#                      G#m
Cause a couple of weeks ago she learned her lesson
E                                 B
Went and brought herself a little Smith and Wesson

At a little motel down by the bay

F#                            G#m
Well she was all right just a little roughed up
      E                    B      F#
So he took her down to the coffee shop
    F#                    G#m
The report he filed said  victim unknown

Now she waits up nights for him to come  home
