A  D  A  D  A  D  E

     A            D       A    D
That house on the hill is long gone
          A          D                E
Now she's living in a trailer with an Astroturf lawn
    A            D        A         D
Got three little kids and no one to help
             A         D     E
Trying to be Momma and Daddy all by herself

[Pre-Chorus]
             F#m                             C#m
It's hard to hold down the fort, when you're holdin' down a job
          D
She'd rob Peter to pay Paul but he's already been robbed 
              F#m                       C#m
She get's the food on the table and the clothes off the lines
      D                          E
She`d break down and cry but she doesn't have time     

[Chorus]
            A          C#m
She's gotta be strong, life goes on
            D            E
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
            A             C#m
She's gonna be o.k. gonna find a way
D         E        A    D  A  D  A  D  E
Living in no man's land

[Verse]
      A       D    A       D
Every now and then late at night
              A            D       E
She thinks of how it would feel to hold someone tight
              A           D              A           D
And there's a guy down at work who keeps callin' her up
    A         D         E
But she ain't ready for none of that stuff

[Pre-Chorus]
            F#m                            C#m
She's still sifting through the ashes of a love that's been and gone
D
Looking for a clue, trying to find our what went wrong 
   F#m                       C#m
It ain't always easy but she knows she's gotta try
D                                     E
Every time she looks into her babies' eyes

[Chorus]
            A          C#m
She's gotta be strong, life goes on
            D            E
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
            A             C#m
She's gonna be o.k. gonna find a way   
D         E       (A     D  A  D  A  D  E 2x)
Living in no man's land

           A          C#m
She's gotta be strong, life goes on
            D            E
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
            A             C#m
She's gonna be o.k. gonna find a way   
D         E        A    D  A  D  A  D  E  A
Living in no man's land
