Start Jamming...
Going on a short holiday tomorrow, so I thought I'd do a song before I go.
Haven't played this one in ages.
[F#] [G]
[Bm] With the money from her [G] accident she bought herself a [D] mobile home
[A] So at least she could get [G] some enjoyment out of [Bm] being alone
[G] No one could say she was [D] left up on the shelf
[A] She was niggas and world kids, she mumbled to [E] herself
When the world falls [D] apart
[Bm] Something stayed in place
[G] Levi stops [A] tears run [Bm] down his face
[F#] [Bm] She ran away [D] from home
in her mother's best coat
She [A] was married [G] before she was even [Bm] entitled to vote
[G] And her husband was [D] one of those blokes
[A] Who only laughs at [Bm] his own jokes
[G] Sought that war and [D] takes away
[A] When there wasn't a war he left [E] anyway
When the world falls [D] apart
[Bm] Something stayed in place
[G] Levi stops [A] tears run [Bm] down his face
Norman [A] Whitfield and Barrett Strong are here to make right everything that's wrong
Holland and Holland [F#] and Lomondosia too [A] are here to make it all okay with [Bm] you
One dark night [G] he came home [D] from the sea
[A] Put a hole in her body
[G]
Where no [Bm] hole should be
[G] Heard her more to see him walking [D] out the door
[A] They stitched her back together.
They left her heart in pieces [Bm] on the floor
[A]
[D] When the world falls apart something [Bm] stayed in place
[A]
[G] She takes off the four tops tape
[Bm] back in his case
[A]
[G] When the world falls [A] apart
something [Bm] stayed in place
