Two little girls, hand in hand
F Am
Wait in the winter rain
C F G C
They said their good-byes and they opened their eyes
F Am
And they stared down a westbound train
C F G C
I read in my paper they were feeling so bad
F Am
About this and the other thing
C F G C
But all I could think of were the parents back home
F Am C
Waiting on the phone to ring
G C Am
Why do they do the things they do?

Billy said, "Take them, I won't need them anymore"

And we laughed at what we thought was a joke

He went down Monday morning to the hardware store
F Am
And they found him at the end of his rope
C F G C
For a long while after I was walking around
F Am
With a terrible case of the blues
C F G C
I couldn't hear laughter, I could just hear the sound
F Am C
Of my feet in that dead man's shoes

They leave in the morning, leaving no warning
F Am
Sometimes they spell it all out
C F G C
They leave in the evening, no one believing
F Am
That this could have come about
C F G C
They dwell on the sadness, anticipating

The dream of a dreamless night

They live with the darkness, and for all their waiting

They never see the morning light
