Text size
 
              G Em D 
He calls from a hotel in downtown Dallas 
G Em D 
Says he won't be home for three more days 
C D G Em 
She gets so lonely in her Houston hill top palace 
F D 
Talking to her self as their two-year-old plays 
G Em D 
She rocks the baby to sleep then gets in bed 
G Em D 
Reads romance novels of a love she once had  
C D G Em  
She closes her eyes and dreams about the man 
F C D 
Who gave her more than money and a call now and then  
C G D 
As the shine on her diamond starts to fade 
C Em D 
She recalls the promises they made 
C D G Em 
But a bond can only bend so far before it breaks 
C D G 
She's stuck between a rock and a heartache 
G Em D  
She tries to keep busy with her everyday routines 
G Em D 
Soap operas in the afternoons, after she cleans  
C D G Em  
As she wipes off a picture frame from their wedding day  
F D 
She wonders if he asked her again what would she say  
Bm C G  
She feels like she's stranded somewhere in no man's land 
F D 
Cause her life is like a prisoner's chained to a wedding band
