That Boy
By JJ Grey and Mofro
Transcribed by Slobrien (aka Mike O)

The verse is the same throughout 
A repeating E A progression 
with a treble string open strum after the 
A chord on the way back to E 
cool funky rhythm to it Pretty easy to figure out 
all chords are approximateto the lyrics here


E            A     E            A             E     A                                       
Everybody's looking  You're the talk all over town 
E          A                                                    
When y'all walk the street 
E     A                     E         A                                      
He's got a smile you got a frown 
E                A                          E                              
Too many folks talking about what you ought to do 
         A             E                                                                  
And not what you gonna do  
      E      A    E             A               A
Still ain't right for that man to get on top of you 

 
A                   G
That Boy don't love - He's afraid of you 

 E           A etc                                                             
 We heard he slapped you around 
 And I know that shit ain't right 
 One minute y'all get along 
 And then the next you fuss and fight 
 Sugar wouldn't melt in his mouth according to you 
 Next day we see you girl you all black and blue 

A                   G
That Boy don't love - He's afraid of you 

E          A etc
 Now your moments come 
 You've got to break out on your own 
 Girl you can't live in fear 
 Inside that place you call your home 
It's time to turn him out turn him loose just walk away 
 He's just a mama's boy let him cry girl let him cry 

 A                   G
 That Boy don't love - He's afraid of you 
 That Boy don't love - He's afraid of you
