Sadly Sorta Like a Soap Opera Lyrics

Artist: Steve Forbert
Album: Jackrabbit Slim

The (C)walls closing around you, and he (Am)woun`nt be home to night.
Heâ‚¬â„¢s (Dm)out somewhere and gambling and (G7)perhaps heâ‚¬â„¢s in a fight,
and yes you (C)know about the woman, and you (Am)know its three or four,
and(DM)perhaps heâ‚¬â„¢s out there laughing now and (G7)dansing on the floor.
And yet you (C)try to make the best of it, wich (Am)isâ‚¬â„¢nt much I know.
You (Dm)thaught youâ‚¬â„¢ve had your fill of it, but you (G7)see that it wasâ‚¬â„¢nt so.
No....(C-Am-Dm-G7)

Now your babies are sleeping soundly, and you hang your head and think.
He damn near broke your nose last night, and harder does he drink,
and as the wind blows at the window, and the clouds go by the mong,
the walls closing around you and your sadnes is still around.
And yet you try to make the best of it, wich isâ‚¬â„¢nt much I know.
You thaught youâ‚¬â„¢ve had your fill of it, but you see that it wasâ‚¬â„¢nt so.
No....

You know you make your own decisions and you live the life you choose,
you know I watch it from the sidelines and it shure gives me the blues,
you know youâ‚¬â„¢re shure to find me waiting,should you ever come around,
I am the one that loves you while he drives you further down.
And yet you try to make the best of it, wich isâ‚¬â„¢nt much I know.
You thaught youâ‚¬â„¢ve had your fill of it, but you see that it wasâ‚¬â„¢nt so.
No....
