House With No Doors Chords

   
Standard Tuning - Capo 1

A
I was there in my trailer, down at the job-site
                                            E
The day that this stranger walked in 
                                                                A
His face looked so sad and he carried a set of blueprints

And as I unrolled them the first thing I noticed
                                           D
Were there were no doors in the plans
            E
He said if you build this for me, then when she comes back
                                            A
She’ll never be able to leave me again
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/george_strait/house_with_no_doors_crd.html ]
Chorus:
                D
I said if I did, and she ever came back
                                            A
Friend, tell me how would she get in
                                                       E
It would just be a prison that I locked you in
                        D
If you couldn’t leave you’d never know 

If there was someone who loved you
                                A
The way that she didn’t before
                                                E
There’s two things that I know for sure
        
Is that you can’t make a woman feel something she don’t
                                                A
And you can’t build a house with no doors

Key shift: (Everything is raised up two steps)

D = E
A = B
E = F#

For a while he was quite, I could tell he was thinking
I thought I just ruined his day
I just couldn’t bare to see this mans last hope slip away
So I thought real fast, and I started talking said
Buddy, we’ve tried this before
And if there ain’t one she’ll make on
And either way, she’ll run
And leave you a house with a hole for a door

Chorus:
with these lines after:

No, you can’t make a woman feel something she don’t
And you can’t build a house with no doors
