Life Surprises chords by Raphi
Verse 1
Gm
G
Gm
Yeah,
G
Gm
you know, looking back,
G
Gm
man, it wasn't even worth it.
G
Gm
She gave me the best and worst days of my life,
shattered dreams of her as my wife,
Eb
D
Gm
acting tripe as we decayed.
G
We had it made for a second in time,
F
so I gave her my heart,
Eb
but I should've known she
G
wasn't mine.
Gm
Didn't read the signs,
G
I only wanted it to last
D
Did my best not to trip
when the ex used to harass
Gm
I'd wipe tears from her eyes,
G
Gm
thought were from grey skies
But didn't realize
D
G
it was her desire for other guys
Mainly one, living by the gun,
wannabe thug
She went to visit the past
D
when it's all caught a slug
G
And I wasn't intimidated man,
you know I was peace
I gave her space not knowing that
the games would increase
Thinking back, I remember waiting for the
month of December for the holidays
Eb
We couldn't wait to celebrate
G
together
But before we could start,
everything fell apart
In turn she muffled a flame
D
that I just couldn't respond
G
Though I tried, but she lied,
I didn't wanna backslide
But I knew that eventually
D
me and him would collide
G
I had pride I had to protect,
and he had a rep
One day he followed her from work
D
and then the chump came to
G
my doorstep
Knocked hard once,
then my mother came to peep
So now this fool knows where
D
G
my family sleep
D
When she called for my girl,
G
I knew that something was wrong
Followed her down the staircase,
D
G
saw his face and it was on
Arrogant slurk on his mug,
stood almost looking proud
D
We started having words,
G
you know we both got loud
Couldn't believe he was at the home
Straight line to mom
Next thing I know I throw a fist
Southpaw had to bomb
Exchange of blows
Between foes face to face
Uppercuts and hooks
D
were thrown in it
G
Seemed to be a case
Of a big head and bigger mouth
No squabs to back it up
Eb
I caught that fool in the grill
D
On teeth my knuckles got cut
G
Along with a broken nose
And Bally's swollen jaw
G
D
He also had his strap and his jacket
I never saw
G
Lit off three shots, I ran,
but caught one in the leg
D
As I fell to the ground
C
I looked and saw my mother's head
Gm
G
Snap back from impact
of a bullet traveling through
I crawled up the porch
and got mortified
by the view of my mother lying dead
Over the flowerbed,
her eyelids turned red from bloodshed
Eb
He fled, sped off from the crime scene
I screamed for help,
G
D
I tried to rely on physical means
G
And I was dealt the wrong call
Just trying to be hard,
Eb
I thought I had won the fight
G
But I got forever scarred
in a bizarre twist of fate
I lost my mom on that day,
but I felt only pain
D
G
I thought to, he's gonna pay,
D
cause even if he did
G
And I got my revenge,
it wouldn't bring my mother
D
back
But that was the end,
G
Gm
G
Gm
G
E
or was it?
G
The heart was laid,
when the players should have folded
The king got played,
D
and he thought he had control
The queen was shady, though,
D
below him, be hold
There was a shark in the water,
D
and he was undersold
The heart was laid,
when the players should have folded
D
The king got played,
and he thought he had control
The queen was shady doe,
G
but lo and be hold
there was a shark in the water
Outro 1
and he wasn't her soul
Eb
Bbm

Eb
D
