VERSE 1
BmWith the money from her accident
She bought herself a mobile home
A GSo at least she could get some enjoyment
Bm Bm Aout of living alone
No one could say she was left upon the shelf
AIts you and me against the world she mumble to herself
CHORUSC G D A C G D BWhen the world falls apart somethings stay in place
G A Bm F#mLevis Stubbs tears roll down his face
VERSE 2
Bm A D D/C#She ran away from home in her mother's best coat
A G Bm Bm AShe was married before she was even entitled to vote
And her husband was one of those blokes
A BmThe sort who only laughs at his own jokes
G DThe sort that a war takes away
And when there wasn't a war he left her anyway
CHORUS (omit F#m)
BRIDGE
D A G ANorman Whitfield and Barratt Strong
Are here to make right everything that's wrong
D A G AHolland and Holland and Lamont Dozier too
A (hold)
Are here to make it okay with you
VERSE 3
Bm A D D/C#One dark night he came home from the sea
And put a hole in her body, where no hole should be
G DIt hurt her more to see him walking out the door
AAnd though they stiched her back together they left her heart in
pieces on the floor
When the world falls apart somethings stay in place
GShe takes off the Four Tops tape
A Bm Bm Aand puts it back in its case
When the world falls apart somethings stay in place
G A Bm Bm ALevis Stubbs tears
Fade on G A Bm A
