Intro 1
(D major)
(Csus2) (D major)
Verse 1
They (D major) always prey
on (A major) wo men like (D major) you
They read (G major) self -doubt in the (A major) way she walks
He (B minor) suckered (G major) her (B minor) in (D major) with
a (G major) hollow kind (D major) word
Saying (G major) I just love (D major) the (G major) soft
(A major) way that you talk
You (D major) won't leave,
he'd scream, (A major) how (D major) could you?
As (G major) they replayed the same bloodless (A major) fight
It (G major) hadn't seemed long
(D major) till the (G major) joy had left (D major) them
And the (B flat major) dark (D major) long si (Csus2) lence
(D major) ended their night
They were going for a (A major) meal
with her (D major) sister
They'd been fighting
(G major) before leav (A major) ing home
And he struck (G major) her so (B minor) hard
(D major) that his (G major) palm had blistered (D major)
Slap makeup (G major) couldn't hide
the (A major) bruises on her bones
She (D major) left the restaurant
table (A major) without (D major) warning
It was (G major) not like her to (D major) make (A major) a fuss
Saying (B minor) you'll not see me to
(G major) morrow morn (D major) ing
From taking the (Csus2) nex (D major) t Brisbane bus
Yeah, I'm leavin' on the
next Brisbane bus
There's vultures waitin'
on nights (A major) like (D major) these
For a (G major) woman to leave on (A major) her own
A (G major) car pulled up be (D major) side her
(G major) near a (D major) dark row of trees
The (E flat major) clouds (D major) were thick (Csus2)
and the night (D major) wind roamed
(B flat major) (D major) (Csus2) (D major)
And my (E minor) body (B minor) (E minor) lay broken,
(B minor) (D major) na (G major) ked and alone (A major) (G major)
(D major) And the cruels picked out my eyes
And the (B minor) flesh fell off (D major) (G major) my bones (A major) (G major) (D major)
I watched it all
between the dirt and the sky
Yeah, I (B flat major) watched (D major) it (Csus2) all
between (D major) the dirt and the sky (Csus2) (D major)
An (A major) d the (B minor) officers came (E minor) (B minor) (D major) to
(G major) drag him from her home (A major) (G major) (D major)
With the cuffs around his wrist
An (A major) d our (B minor) neighbors saw (F sharp minor) him
(B minor) Get (D major) (G major) let off the load (A major) (G major) (D major)
Standing with their hands in fists
Yeah, he was let off
They (Csus2) watched with their (D major) hands in fists
They all cried out (A major) , how could (D major) you?
Well, they (G major) knew he was
looking for me (A major) that night
They (G major) watch his pleas come out of the (D major) TV
And they (G major) disbelieve the tears (A major) that he cried
But I (D major) see him squatting in that (A major) cold (D major) cell
Here I watched (G major) it all
between the (A major) dirt and the sky
Took a (B minor) random act (G major) to (D major) curse (G major) him to (D major) hell
And a stranger (D major) done (Csus2) took (D major) both our lives
A stranger, (Csus2) took (D major) both our lives
Yeah, a man, (D major) he took both (D major) our lives
you
