WINDOWS AND WALLS - Dan Fogelberg - "Windows and Walls" 1984

Here's the main theme, very simplified, played as an intro and elsewhere:

  D/A             Bb              D/A              Bb
E ----2-0---2----|------1-0------|-----2-0---2----|------1-0------|
B ------------3--|----3-------3--|-------------3--|----3-------3--|
G ---------------|--3------------|----------------|--3------------|
D --0------------|---------------|--0-------------|---------------|
A 0--------------|1--------------|0---------------|1--------------|
E ---------------|---------------|----------------|---------------|

D/A              Bb
Up every morning long before day

D/A                     C    C7
Cooking her breakfast alone

    D/A                 Bb 
She quietly dresses and pulls up the shades

    D/A                      G 
And sits in the chair by the phone

    E7/G#              D           Bm          D   
But nobody every comes by anymore, nobody ever calls

E7/G#                        D             D/C#        Bm  Bm/A  E 
Most days she sits and just stares at her windows and wa - a - alls

            D/A    Bb   D/A   Bb
Windows and walls

Children all married, husband's passed on
Nothing but time on her hands
Most of her mornings are spent in her dreams
And making her sad little plans
Maybe she'll go to the corner today and pick up the new McCall's
If just to escape for an hour from her windows and walls
Windows and walls

The clock on the mantle chiming the hours 
Must be the loneliest sound
She washes her dishes and waters her flowers
And afterwards has to sit down
Sometimes she still can remember a child playing with china dolls
Now all that she's left are these memories and windows and walls
Windows and walls
Windows and walls
(day after day)
Windows and walls...
