The Stairs
Recorded by Reba McEntire
Written by Pamela Brown and Dalton Roberts

C G7
She looks at the clock it's a quarter past nine
Am F G7
She hears his car as he pulls in the drive
C G7
Dinner's still waiting from hours before
D7 G7
She knows he's been drinking when he walks through the door
Dm G7
In anger he strikes out and she starts to cry
Dm G7
How much more can she take how much more can she lie

C F G7
And she fell down the stair again
Am Em F G7
But it hasn't happened since she don't know when
F G7
Was it in spring when she packed up the kids
Dm G7
Or maybe in winter with his job on the skids
Am Em F
Oh but just like before she'll have to pretend
Dm G7 C
That she fell down the stairs again

G7
A short time ago she started a job
Am F G7
Serving chicken fried steak and corn on the cob
C G7
She started out shy but she ended up sure
D7 G7
That a ticket to anywhere could be the cure
Dm G7
But he couldn't handle her change for the better
Dm G7
She tried to leave him but he wouldn't let her

F G7
He says he's sorry he'd didn’t mean it
C G7 Am
He swears it won't happen again
F G7
But she's so confused she wants to believe it
Dm G7
She just wants this nightmare to end

repeat #2

Am Em F
Just like before she'll have to pretend
Dm G7 C
That she fell down the stairs again
