Linda works in the diner, pourin' coffee, slingin' hash 
               D                                                       C                       G                                                           
She said, I wouldn't have come in today but I really need the cash 
                                                             C 
I know I can't fool anyone 'cause dark    glasses tell no lies 
       D                                                        G                     C 
But make-up won't cover up a blackened eye. Oh oh oh no 
               G                                                      C 
You see Jimmy works construction now but yesterday it rained 
           D                                                   C                           G 
So he went down to the liquor store and by noon he felt no pain 
                                               C 
I came in an hour late, then I let his supper burn 
              D                                           C                     G 
Well he hit the roof, hit the wall and then it was my turn 
              C          D                 Em    C                    G     D            G           D 
He said, a man's home is his castle it always has been and so it remains 
C                        D             G       C                                    G              D          G      C 
But he holds the keys in a fist of rage his home is his castle and mine is a cage 
 G                                                              C 
Someone must have heard the noise and they dialed 9-1-1 
 D                                                                        C                           G 
And the cop who showed up at the door asked, is there a problem son 
 G                                                             C 
Jimmy smiled and said, ""No sir, just a little fight that's all 
D                                                                               C                       G                     C 
Hey you know how it gets sometimes when you're layin' down the Law. Oh oh oh no 
 G                                                        C    
So I pulled out my suitcase, I started packin' up my clothes 
                                                                                                   G 
And Jimmy said, Now Linda, where do you expect to go with those 
                                                        C 
I told him, I have tried, but not an ounce of love survives 
D                                                                                C                 Em C Em C 
Well he grabbed my wrist and shouted you're not leavin' here alive 
G                                                                      C 
She said, I'm savin up my money and when I get the nerve I'll run 
D                                                  C                      G 
But Jim don't give up easily so I intend to buy a gun 
                                                C 
He will never see the way he treats me is a crime 
D                                                     C                 D 
Somebody oughta lock him up but I'm the one who's done the time 
              C            D                Em    C                    G      D           G            D 
He said, a man's home is his castle  It always has been and so it remains 
 C                        D             G       C                                 G             D            G    C G 
But he holds the keys in a fist of rage his home is his castle and mine is a cage
