Intro:
Every time I end up waking up in some hotel without my
Set of keys
Coming to, remembering the way you turned me out when I was
On my knees
(F#m)
You think that was
One up for you
(E)
But I know I scored something too
When I see the way you have to struggle just to do a little
Simple thing
I feel apologetic just because I'm not particularly
Suffering
(F#m)
So I let you
take me down
(E)
I'm like your
rent-A- clown
When I saw my baby cry
I knew that he loved me
That was some great victory
(F) G
He cried because of me
He hit me with his belt
But his tears were all I felt
When I saw my baby cry
I~~~~~~~~~ knew~~~~~~~~
he loved me
(BRIDGE)
When you try and cut me down and push me back if I attack your
attitude
I rise up to the challenge 'cause I like to taste the sugar of your
violent mood
(F#m)
Just like a stormy sea
(E)
You're natural
Poetry to me
When I saw my baby cry
I knew he loved me
That was some great victory
(F) G
He cried because of me
He hit me with his belt
But his tears were all I felt
When I saw my baby cry
I~~~~~~~~~ knew~~~~~~~~
he loved me
(OUTRO)
I knew
He loved me
