Motel Lights
By Cooder Graw
Intro chords:
[F] [C] [G]
[Bb] [C] [G]
[G]Little did she know
[Em]The ring wouldnâ??t go
With [C]him out to the [G]bar
[G]Newlyweds,[Em] barely out of bed
And now heâ??[C]s leaving in another girlâ[G]??s car
[D]She shouldâ??ve known
When she [C]took him home
And [G]stole him from another
Heâ??[D]d do the same thing with [C]a wedding ring
And [G]leave it a love[Em]r
She [C]thought she could change [D]all of the things
That [G]kept him out at [Em]night
But even [C]gold canâ??t hold [D]a man
Who sold his [C]home for motel [D]lights
Chorus:
Now these [F]motel lights [C]flicker outside my [G]door
Well I [F]guess I deserve every[C]thing I get and [G]more
And that [F]vacancy rem[C]inds me of [G]what Iâ??ve got in store
As these [F]motel lights fli[C]cker outside my doo[D]r
He sells a lie she still wants to buy
But that canâ??t last for long
Who wants to wait at home all day
For a man who never wants to come home
She canâ??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 canâ??t believe sheâ??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
