CAPO I
A
I WAS THERE IN MY TRAILER, DOWN AT THE JOBSITE
E
THE DAY THAT THIS STRANGER WALKED IN
A
HIS FACE LOOKED SO SAD AND HE CARRIED A SET OF BLUEPRINTS
AND AS I UNROLLED 'EM THE FIRST THING I NOTICED
D
WERE THERE WERE NO DOORS IN THE PLANS
E
HE SAID IF YOU BUILD THIS FOR ME THEN WHEN SHE COMES BACK
A
SHE'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO LEAVE ME AGAIN
CHORUS:
D
I SAID IF I DID AND SHE EVER CAME BACK
A
FRIEND, TELL ME HOW WOULD SHE GET IN
E
IT WOULD JUST BE A PRISON THAT I LOCKED YOU IN
D
IF YOU COULDN'T LEAVE YOU'D NEVER KNOW
IF THERE WAS SOMEONE WHO LOVED YOU
A
THE WAY THAT SHE DIDN'T BEFORE
E
THERE'S TWO THINGS THAT I KNOW FOR SURE
IS THAT YOU CAN'T MAKE A WOMAN FEEL SOMETHIN SHE DONT
A
AND YOU CANT BUILD A HOUSE WITH NO DOORS
KEY SHIFT
D = E
A = B
E = F#m
FOR A WHILE HE WAS QUIET I COULD TELL HE WAS THINKING
I THOUGHT JUST RUINED HIS DAY
I JUST COULDNT BARE TO SEE THIS MANS LAST HOPE SLIP AWAY
SO I THOUGHT REAL FAST, AND I STARTED TALKING SAID
BUDDY, WE'VE TRIED THIS BEFORE
AND IF THERE AINT ONE SHELL MAKE ONE
EITHER WAY, SHELL RUN AND LEAVE YOU A HOUSE
WITH A HOLE FOR A DOOR
REPEAT CHORUS
NO, YOU CAN'T MAKE A WOMAN FEEL SOMETHING SHE DON'T
AND YOU CAN'T BUILD A HOUSE WITH NO DOORS
