Linda works the diner pourin' coffee slingin' hash
           D                                   C               G
She said, "I wouldn't have come in today but I really need the cash"
                                      C
I know I can't fool anyone 'cause dark glasses tell no lies
    D                         C         G        C
But make-up won't cover up a blackened eye" Ohhh no
         G                                C
You see, Jimmy works construction now but yesterday it rained
      D                                 C                  G
So he went down to the liquor store and by noon he felt no pain
                              C
I came in an hour late then I let his supper burn
        D                             C              G
Well he hit the roof hit the wall and then it was my turn"

He said "A man's home is his castle
C             G    D         G          D
It always has been and so it remains"
  C              D         G       C
But he holds the keys in a fist of rage
                G          D         G    C
His home is his castle and mine is a cage
G                                 C
Someone much have heard the noise then they dialed 911
D                                             C                  G
And the cop that showed up at the door asked,"Is there a problem son?"
G                                    C
Jimmy smiled and said "No sir, just a little fight that's all
D                                               C               G         C
Hey you know how it get's sometimes when you're layin' down the law",Ohhh no
G                                     C
So I pulled out my suitcase I started packin' up my clothes
D                                       C                 G
And Jimmy said 'Now Linda, where do you expect to go with those'
G                                    C
I told him 'I have tried, but not an ounce of love survives'
D                                               C            Em    C Em C
Well he grabbed my wrist and shouted you're not leavin' here alive"
G                                           C
She said "I'm savin' up my money and when I get the nerve I'll run
D                                 C               G
But Jim don't give up easily so I intend to buy a gun
G                            C
He will never see the way he treats me is a crime
D                               C            D
Somebody oughta lock him up but I'm the one "Who's done the time"

C                D         G       C
