Standard (EADGBE)

History's made it's mark in anger

As everybody knows it's what we do

 It's nothing new

The next chords struck are fault and failure

And we both know that finger points on cue

 There's blame for two

Do you really want him coming Newo?

Do you really think he's coming back to you?

 Oh, Once the world stops spinning, read that writing on the wall.

Is there another. Newo?

Is there cushion just enough to break my fall

Oh, don't you cry

 Just lie there baby in the past, Cause if you want it all right now

Hide your feathers, on the back porch, baby

He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar

Hide your feathers, Little back porch lady

You're too old... enough to cry your sorry eyes out over the world

Hear me scream outside your window

I'm only here to make my peace with you...

 There's something new

Oh, it was our time, that day in our lives

If I could do things different, what would I choose?

 Oh, why would you cry, Mama.

Please, don't cry Mama.

Oh, don't you cry, no, no.

Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.

He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.

Hide your feathers, little back porch lady

You're too old... enough to cry your sorry eyes out over the world

No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy

 When there's no more room for love,

You'll sail her off to the shores

No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy

 When there's no more room for love,

You'll sail her off to the shores

Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.

He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.

Right now! hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.

He's coming home for... you've... been... such... a liar.

Hide your feathers on the back porch, baby.

To open up to cry your sorry eyes out

Wait a minute, little back porch lady

Wait a minute, little back porch lady (I'm in love)

Wait a minute, little back porch lady

Why won't you cry, Mama

Why would you cry, no, no

Wait a minute, little back porch lady

Wait a minute, little back porch lady (I'm in love)

Wait a minute, little back porch lady

Why won't you cry, Mama

Why would you cry, no, no
