Verse:
I’m coming into youAr towF#mn.
E Night is falling to the gAround,
F#mbut I can still Esee where you loved yourDself
before he tAore it all down. April 1D2th,
with nAobody else around; you were Doutside the house
(where’s youEr mother?),F#m
E when he put you in the cAar, F#m
E when he took you down the rAoad.
F#m And I can still sEee where it was oDpen,
the doAor he slammed closed. It was oDpen,
the doAor he slammed closed. It was oDpen, long agEo.
Chorus:
But doAn’t lose me Enow, don’t lose F#mme now.
Though I know tDhat I’m not usefulA anyhow,
F#m just let me stick aEround
while I Atell you, like bEefore,
you should sF#may his name the Dway that he said yAours.
But you don't F#mwant to say his name aEnymore. Oh, Cynda Moore.
Intro
F#m E Baby daughter on the rAoad,
F#m youE’re wrapped up warm in daddy?A??s coat.
F#m And I can still Esee the cigarette’Ds heat.
I can’t Abelieve all that you're tellinDg me,
what is cAutting like the smoke through your tDeeth
as you’re telling me E“forget it.”
F#m E But if I could tear his thAroat,
F#m anEd spill his blood between myA jaws,
anF#md erase his name out for gEood,
don’t you know that ID would?
Don't you realize that IA wouldn’t pause,
that I wDould cut him dAown with my claws
if I cDould have somehow never let that hEappen?
Or I’dA call, some black miEdnight,
fuck up his F#mnew life where they dDon’t know what heA did,
tell his bF#mrand-new wife and his sEecond kid.
Though I tAell you, like beEfore,
that you should wF#mreck his life the wDay that he wrecked Ayours,
you want F#mno part of his life anymEore.
Oh Cynda Moore,
Intro
Adon’t lose meE now, let me help yF#mou out.
Though I know tDhat I can’t helpA anyhow,
F#mwhen I watch you I’mE proud.
When I tAell you twice beEfore
that you should wF#mreck his life the wDay that he wrecked yAours,
you want F#mno part of his life Eanymore.
oh Cynda DMo A - E ore.
And it’llD never be theA way it wasE before,
but I wDish that you would lAet me through that dEoor.
D A E (or Intro bit)
end on E
