[verse]
Cm
When I hear them use your name
A#
I get all choked up inside
Cm
It's not only from the shame
A#
It's like ten different lovers died
Fm
Except you're still just a mile away
Gm G
But there's nothing left to say
[chorus]
Cm
Don't leave us down and out again
A#
Cause we might break instead of bend
Fm
I felt a little strain in the pouring rain
Gm G
It washed away most everything
[verse]
Cm
If I found another love
A#
They must be forever true
Cm
Cause if someone breaks this heart
A#
Your old man right here is through
Fm
Heaven just seems so far away
Gm G
When there's nothing left to say
[chorus]
Cm
Don't leave us down and out again
A#
Cause we might break instead of bend
Fm
I felt a little strain in the pouring rain
Gm G
It washed away most everything

[chorus]
Cm
Don't leave us down and out again
A#
Cause we might break instead of bend
Fm
I felt a little strain in the pouring rain
Gm G
It washed away most everything
Cm
Don't leave us down and out again
A#
The little girl can't comprehend
Fm
She had another dream that her mama's gone
Gm G
She's alright, but you're all wrong
