Intro – | / / G Em | D |
 
     G                                  Bm         
You can see it, She was lonely and it hurt enough to kill
      D                       Em
That hearts been broken too many times for real
   G                             Bm
Careless with Her kindness but a mean old wife
          D                       Em
So many tears were shed over many men or a lie

 G               D
Did You see old Missy?
  G                D
Living Her life in vain
    Am         G
Too hard to be loving
    G       Em    D
Too easy to hide away

  G                             Bm
Wanted to talk to Missy just to try to lift Her up
      D                             Em
But desperation and anger like the wings of a duck
          G                        Bm       
Seemed to carry Her in the moment farther away
      D                               Em
From those who try to love Her to the ones who make Her pay

 G               D
Did you see old Missy?
 G                 D
Living Her life in vain
    Am          G
Too hard to be Loving
    G       Em    D
Too easy to hide away

 G                                       Bm
You could see it behind the eyes but She tried Her best to hide
     D                       Em
That hearts been broken too many times to try
 G                                    Bm
Careless with Her kindness,She was a superficial girl
       D                                Em
Always rolling with the in crowd as the bad times unfurl

 G               D
Did you see old Missy?
 G                 D
Living Her life in vain
    Am          G
Too hard to be loving
    G       Em    D
Too easy to hide away

 G                                       Bm
Every cupboard full of liquor but She struggled with the rent
        D                     Em
There's no one to blame,drink half the money spent
           G                           Bm
She got a daughter just turning 30,She never could reconcile
           D                                  Em
They found Her in that coach house,She'd been gone for awhile

 G              D
Did you see old Missy?
 G                 D
Living Her life in vain
    Am         G
Too hard to be loving
    G       Em   D
Too easy to hide away

     G               D
Just walking by that coach house
   G                     D
Couldn't watch Her waste away
    Am           G
Too hard to love Her
     G           Em   D
Too easy just to walk away
