A5
Every time I end up waking up in some hotel without my
F#5
Set of keys
A5
Coming to, remembering the way you turned me out when I was
F#5
On my knees

( F#5 )
You think that was
D5    F#5    E5
One up for you
( E5 )         D5       F#5       E5
But I know I scored something too

A5
When I see the way you have to struggle just to do a little
F#5
Simple thing
A5
I feel apologetic just because I'm not particularly
F#5
Suffering

( F#5 )
So I let you
D5    F#5   E5
take me    down
( E5 )
I'm like your
D5    F#5   E5
rent - A-    clown

C5             E5
When I saw my baby cry
F5              G5       
I knew that he loved me
C5                 E5     F5
That was some great victory
( F5 )                 G5
He cried because of me

A5               G5
He hit me with his belt
F5                          G5
But his tears were all I felt

C5       E5      A5      E5
When I saw my baby cry
F5            G5
I~~~~~~~~~ knew~~~~~~~~
           C5       G5     A5    A5
he loved me

(BRIDGE)
C5     G5     A5   A5

A5
When you try and cut me down and push me back if I attack your
F#5
attitude
A5
I rise up to the challenge 'cause I like to taste the sugar of your
F#5
violent mood

( F#5 )       D5   F#5  E5
Just like a stormy   sea
( E5 )
You're natural
D5  F#5    E5
Poetry to me

C5             E5       
When I saw my baby cry
F5         G5
I knew he loved me
C5                   E5    F5
That was some great victory
( F5 )                 G5
He cried because of me

A5                G5
He hit me with his belt
F5                           G5
But his tears were all I felt

C5       E5      A5      E5
When I saw my baby cry 
F5            G5
I~~~~~~~~~ knew~~~~~~~~
           C5       E5     A5    A5
he loved me

(OUTRO)
F5      
I knew
G5          C5
He loved me
