Emmylou Harris Woman Walk The Line Lyrics

(Emmylou Harris, Paul Kennerley)

F Bb
Don't bother sittin' at my table
F Bb
Just because I'm on my own
Cm Bb
Yes I'm a woman and I'm lonely
F Eb Bb
But that don't mean I can't be strong
Bb Eb
Once again he's not beside me
Bb
And tonight he won't be coming home
Cm Bb
So I just need a place to miss my baby
F Bb Bb7
When he goes out to do me wrong
Eb Ab Eb
Tonight I want to do some drinkin'

I came to listen to the band
Bb
Yes I'm as good as what you're thinkin'

But I don't want to hold your hand
Eb Ab Eb
And I know I'm lookin' lonely
Eb Ab Eb
But there's nothing here I want to find
F Bb
It's just the way of a woman
Eb F Bb Ab Eb Bb
When she goes out to walk the line
F Bb
Every night's a little longer
F Bb
Than the one that came before
Cm Bb
But when I hear them sing a sad song
F Eb Bb
I know just what I'm cryin' for
Eb
I don't want to stay home waitin'
Bb
Don't have to wonder where he's been
Cm Bb
He'll be someone else's baby
F Bb
Before he's in my arms again
Eb Ab Eb
Tonight I want to do some drinkin'

I came to listen to the band
Bb
Yes I'm as good as what you're thinkin'
