Lyrics and Chords
Vamp twice - Am G7 F7 G7
v1 part 1. Am G7 F7 G7
She wants more out of life
Am. G7. F7. G7
Than the chores she can’t ignore.
Am. G7. F7. G7
A mom of four and doting wife
Am. G7 F7. G7
It’s more than she was ready for.
V1 part 2. Dm
His kiss, a thing of the past
Am
His hug, restrained, and never lasts.
Dm
Each day she plots her getaway
Bm7
But fears a life in
E+
Disarray.
Am G7 F7 G7 x 2
She wants more.
V2 part 1
She wants more out of life
Than her dreams put on hold
She’s filled with guilt when she tries
To take back what he stole
V2 part 2
He was handsome, thin, but now he’s fat,
He never hesitates to call her that.
Her friends all say she shouldn’t stay
It’s time to plan her getaway.
She wants more.
Solo verse structure both parts
V3 part 1
She wants more out of life
Than to wait for him to make it home
Where he gripes of office strife
Over whiskey while he swipes his phone
V3 part 2
He leaves the room as she replies
Half of what he says are lies
Each day she plots her getaway
But she fears a life in disarray
She wants more
Vamp ending
