She Stays
Recorded by Ricky Van Shelton and Andy Landis   
Written by Andy Landis and Allen Shamblin

G
She'd give anything to hear him say he loves her
                 Em                C
Seems like years since he told her so
        Am                           D7
And she longs for the way he used to hold her
         Am                          D7
When the fire burned out she doesn't do
C       D7      Em  C         D7    G
Endless day and day she could walk away
Em           C         D7
No one would blame her
        G    Em
But she stays 
 
    C                D7            G    Em
She gets down on her knees and she prays
C            D7           G    Em
Looks at the ring that he gave her
    C           D7       C            D7
And so one more time she makes up her mind
        G    Em
And she stays
 
         G
She said something deep inside of her is dying
           Em              C
Loneliness cuts her to the bone
       Am                             D7
But he can't understand the tears she crying
         Am                           D7
And that leaves you feeling even more alone
C         D7     Em     C         D7       G
She feels strong enough she could take her love
Em        C          D7
And go on without him
        G     Em
But she stays
 
    C                D7            G    Em
She gets down on her knees and she prays
C            D7           G    Em
Looks at the ring that he gave her
    C           D7       C            D7
And so one more time she makes up her mind
        G
And she stays

        Em                    C                    D7
Letting go of her man without leaving inside is so hard 
                        Em
So hard so hard but she believes in the promises
          C                         D7
And she's holding on tight with her heart her heart 
           G   Em
And so she stays
 
    C                D7            G    Em
She gets down on her knees and she prays
C            D7           G    Em
Looks at the ring that he gave her
    C           D7       C            D7
And so one more time she makes up her mind
        G    Em
And she stays
 
C            D7           G    Em
Looks at the ring that he gave her
        C               D7
There's nothing she can do but she asking him to
       G
So she stays
