Motel Lights

Motel Lights By Cooder Graw Intro chords: FCG BCG G Little did she know Em The ring wouldn??t go C G With him out to the bar G Em Newlyweds, barely out of bed C G And now he??s leaving in another girl??s car D She should??ve known C When she took him home G And stole him from another D C He??d do the same thing with a wedding ring G Em And leave it a lover C D She thought she could change all of the things G Em That kept him out at night C D But even gold can??t hold a man C D Who sold his home for motel lights Chorus: F C G Now these motel lights flicker outside my door F C G Well I guess I deserve everything I get and more F C G And that vacancy reminds me of what I??ve got in store F C D As these motel lights flicker outside my door He sells a lie she still wants to buy But that can??t last for long Who wants to wait at home all day For a man who never wants to come home She can??t keep the faith at home all day And her mind begins to stray She starts to think about having a drink At a little place down the way She can??t believe she??s about to leave the home She tried to build But she gets in a car with a man from the bar Up to her neck in guilt Chorus
