Tom : D
D G
It's cloudy out in Pittsburgh, it's raining in Saigon
D A
Snow's fallin' all across the Michigan line
D
Well she sits by the light of her Christmas tree
G
With the radio softly on
D A D
Thinkin' how a good man is so hard to find
D
Well once she had a fella
G
Once she was somebody's girl
D A
And she gave all she had that one last time
D
Now there's a little girl asleep in the back room
G
She's gonna have to tell about the meanness in this world
D A D
And how a good man is so hard to find
A G D
Well there's pictures on the table by her bed
G D A
Him in his dress greens and her in her wedding white
D
She remembers how the world was the day he left
G
And now how that world is dead
D A D
And a good man is so hard to find
D
She ain't got no time now for Casanovas
G
Yeah those days are gone
D A
She don't want that anymore, she's made up her mind
D
Just somebody to hold her
G
as the night gets on
D A D
When a good man is so hard to find
D
Well she shuts off the TV
G
and without a word
D A
And into bed she climbs
D
Well she thinks how it was all so wasted
G
And how expendable their dreams all were
D A D
When a good man was so hard to find
Well it's cloudy out in Pittsburgh
