With the [Bm]money from her accident


She [A]bought herself a mobile [D]home


So at [A]least she could get some enj[G]oyment


out of living [Bm]alone


No one could [G]say she was left upon the [D]shelf


Its [A]you and me against the world she mumble to herself


CHORUS

         C*          G*    D*         A*      Bm     Bm A


When the world falls apart somethings stay in place


[G]Levis Stubbs [A]tears roll down his [Bm]face


VERSE 2


She [Bm]ran away from home [A]in her mother's best [D]coat


She was [A]married before she was [G]even entitled to [Bm]vote


And her [G]husband was one of those [D]blokes


The sort who [A]only laughs at his own [Bm]jokes


The [G]sort that a war takes [D]away


And when there [A]wasn't a war he left her anyway


CHORUS (omit F#m)


BRIDGE


[D]Norman [A]Whitfield and [G]Barratt [A]Strong


Are [D]here to make [A]right every[Bm]thing that's wrong


[D]Holland and [A]Holland and Lamont [G]Dozier [A]too


    A (hold)


Are here to make it okay with you


VERSE 3


[Bm]One dark night he [A]came home from the [D]sea


And put a [A]hole in her body, [G]where no hole should [Bm]be


It hurt her [G]more to see him walking out the [D]door


And though they [A]stiched her back together they left her heart in


pieces on the [Bm]floor


When the [G]world falls apart [A]somethings stay in [Bm]place


She takes [G]off the Four Tops tape


[A]and puts it back in its [Bm]case


When the [G]world falls apart [A]somethings stay in [Bm]plac[Bm]e


Levis Stubbs [A]tears


Fade on G  A  Bm  A
