Intro 1
(A minor) (E minor) (A minor) (D minor) (A minor)
Don't (E minor)
Verse 1
(E minor) lay
your (A minor) hands (D minor) (A minor) (E minor) (A minor)
I'm lying in bed (D minor) with my
(A minor) tennis shoes on (E minor)
(A minor) So I could run (D minor) for help,
cause tonight (A minor) it's going down (E minor)
(A minor) He's been drinking all day, (D minor)
he (A minor) claims he can't find any work (E minor)
(A minor) Like a time bomb set (D minor) by the liquor,
(A minor) somebody's bound to get hurt (E minor)
(A minor) It starts off with (D minor) name, cause and cousin,
he (A minor) breaks it down with low self esteem (E minor)
(A minor) Once the bottle's empty,
(D minor) things start to worsen
From the (A minor) bedroom,
I can hear them both scream (E minor) (A minor)
Accusations, got one (D minor) cheatin' on the other
A (A minor) sorry excuse for a man (E minor)
(A minor) Through the crack of the (D minor) door,
I can see him
Smack (A minor) in' with the back of his hand
(E minor) Ooh, yeah, yeah, (A minor) yeah
Ooh, (D minor) yeah, yeah, yeah (A minor)
(E minor) Oo (A minor) h, (E minor) yeah, (A minor) yeah, yeah
Ooh, (D minor) yeah, yeah, yeah (A minor) (E minor)
(A minor) I hop out the back (D minor) window
And I'm run (A minor) ning just as fast as I can (E minor)
(A minor) To the payphone at the (D minor) liquor store,
so I can (A minor) call the police man (E minor) (A minor)
Operator, operat (D minor) or, an emergency,
send (A minor) me an ambulance (E minor)
(A minor) Cause my mom is getting (D minor) beaten
as I'm speaking
and I (A minor) don't know how
much time she has (E minor) (A minor)
I run back to an (D minor) eerie cold silence
As I step through (A minor) the door (E minor) (B minor) (E minor)
I take (A minor) a step and sadly (D minor) notice
Mama lying on the kitchen floor (A minor) (E minor)
Faced fuss, still breathing, badly beaten
As the (A minor) blood dripped
straight from her chin (D minor) (A minor)
And I was running for some help,
it beat her with a dump
Now that's (E minor) a fine addi (A minor) tion
I wrap a towel around (D minor) her head
and I (A minor) hold her close in my lap (E minor)
(A minor) All around they see some (D minor) broken glass
and the (A minor) soap that's lying
on its back (E minor)
He (A minor) returns as the (D minor) cops show up
and they (A minor) take a sorry ass to jail (E minor)
She (A minor) recovers with the (D minor) stitches
and forgives him
and she (A minor) even helps post his bail (E minor)
(A minor) You'd think she would
(D minor) learn a little lesson
and de (A minor) cide that it's time to move on (E minor)
But (A minor) when it's time for sub (D minor) poena
she pretends that (A minor) there's
nobody home (E minor) (A minor)
She's sorry for the (D minor) trouble,
the ab (A minor) use
and the past is all done (E minor)
But (A minor) I paid no atten (D minor) tion
cause he's drinking and
I (A minor) go to bed with my shoes on (E minor) (A minor)
Don't lay your (D minor) (A minor)
(E minor) (A minor) hands (D minor) upon her,
it (A minor) doesn't make you more of a man (E minor)
(A minor) Don't lay your (D minor) hands upon her
Don't (A minor) lay your (E minor) hands
Don't (A minor) lay your (D minor) hands upon her
It (A minor) doesn't make you more than me
(E minor) Oh, yeah, (A minor) yeah, yeah
