Cm7/FShe calls him Swagger 'cause of hFis hat
He adopCm7/Fted her in three secondFs flat
By the Bbm7bus station doorway wEbhere he found her half-aliveCm7/F F
Cm7/FHe is her family and in rFeturn
He beats upCm7/F on her and takes all sheF can earn
And she nBbm7eeds him so badly, Eblosing him, she'd never survive Cm7/F F
