Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa rambles on
          G                         D
about the good times playing in his mind.

It's a hard life living when you're lonely,
       G                   D
it's a long night sleeping alone.
       G                       D

Or sometimes it's the TV, or she'll try to write a letter,
    G                         D

I stare at the grey walls before me,
D                     G
