Intro: G 

Verse: 
 G 
She's got three kids, no husband 
     C                                   G 
And she's two weeks late on last months rent 
       G 
She's waiting on the child support 

And he keeps swearing that it's coming 
        C                                 G 
But if she knows him, she knows where it went 
          D                         C       G 
And that pile of bills ain't gonna pay themselves 


Verse: 
             G 
It's been a forty hour week and it's only Tuesday 
             C                      G 
And there's homework and dinner to make 
     G 
Somebody wants a lullaby 

Somebody wants a different channel 
 C                                   G 
Somebody's dealing with their first heartbreak 
         D                              C        G 
And the dishes in the sink ain't gonna wash themselves 


BREAK: 
     C                             G 
She lights a cigarette out on the balcony 
          Em                          C 
When she gets a couple minutes to herself 
         C                                       G 
There's how you planned it out and how it turns out to be 
       Em                            C 
And a broken home, it ain't no fairytale       


Verse: 
            G 
She's got three kids, no husband 
       C                         G 
And a hairnet job at a diner on Main 
      G 
She knows damn well she don't make the best cup of coffee 
            C                               G 
But she's quick with a smile and good with names 
       D                   C             G 
Those lunch tickets ain't gonna tip themselves 


BREAK: 
     C                             G 
She smokes a cigarette out by the loading dock 
          Em                              C 
And tries not to pick the polish off her nails 
      C                                  G 
She thinks about a guy who's been coming in a lot 
      Em                                   C 
She starts to dream and then she stops herself 


Verse: 
           G 
She's got three kids, no husband 
            C 
So she's a mom and a dad and a taxi driver          
         (G) 
When the baby's sick, she's an up all nighter 
  (C) 
A hand and a shoulder and a referee 
  (G) 
A real life hero if you ask me 
             D                C         G 
Cause those kids ain't gonna raise themselves
