[Verse 1]
[G]man [D]doe[G]s h[D]is work[G]
He's [D]not [G]satisfied not at [D]all[G]
Feels [D]like [G]that he's being use[D]d
[G]His [D]self [G]respect starts [D]to fall[G]
His frustra[D]tion
[G]Running very ver[D]y hig[G]h he [D]takes it out
On [G]the ones he [D]loves,
[G]bec[D]ause it's safe
[G]And who they gonna tel[D]l[G]
And he hates that cold- blooded[A]ness
That runs in[D]side

[D]Sister,[G]
She's got a lot [D]of pride[G]
You can see [D]it when she [G]walk
s into the [D]room[G]
But she's [D]young
[G]And she's unawa[D]re
[G]Of what a bru[D]tal world [G]can do to you[D][G]
So she [D]loves [G]a man
He [D]lies like a [G]dog
[D]Tears her little [G]world all [D]apart
[G]So the walls g[D]o up[G]
For the [D]rest [G]of her days
And there ain't no man can [A]touch this
Girls [D]heart

[G]Jus[D]t to laugh and say hello and
Say goodbye
[A]But[D] so[A]me days a[D]re hard, [E]like a
Soldier's [D]steel- toed boot[G]s
And the rent we pay [A]to stay here
Gets [D]high
