  • [Actually in A, so capo at the 2nd fret]
    [Each chord is about half a measure (but many measures are broken up 3:5).]

    [intro]
     
  • G D G D
    For years she's lived on her own
    C D C D
  • In a corner of the city
    G D G D
    Twice a year she gets back home
  • C D C D
    Playing catch-up with the family
     
  • She tells her folks what they need to know
    Her mother says she's much too thin
    Her sisters ask about her beau
  • Her dad inquires, how's business been
     
    C D G C
  • She's thirty-three this time around
    C D G C
    She's always been real good at listening
  • C D G C
    Her sense of humor never lets her down
    C Em C D
  • Except sometimes there's something missing
     
    G Am D D
  • Hey, middle ground
    G Am D D
    A place between up and down
  • G Am D D
    She could be safe and sound
    G Am C D
  • Oh, to know middle ground
     
    G D G D C D C D
  • [instrumental]
     
    For years she's been on her guard
  • She's kind of tense around the shoulders
    She wonders why she works so hard
    She counts the days 'til they promote her
  •  
    She'll take a weekend now and then
    To stay in bed and watch the reruns
  • She'll turn the phone off when guilt sets in
    But Sunday always kinda leaves her let down
     
  •  
    Hey, middle ground; a place between up and down
    She could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle ground
  •  
    F F C C D G D G
    She gave her heart away one time, and says that she hasn't seen it since
  • F F C C A A C C
    Love's a puzzle in her mind; the pieces match, but don't quite fit; hey...

    G D G D C D C D
  • [instrumental]
     
    And these days run thick or thin
  • It never rains, or else it's pouring
    All her single friends are men
    She thinks married girls are so damn boring
  •  
    Hey, middle ground; a place between up and down
    She could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle ground
  • Hey, middle ground; a place between up and down
    She could be safe and sound; oh, to know middle ground
    G Am C D G Am C D G Am C D.
  • Oh, to know middle ground; oh, to know middle ground [instrumental]
