[Verse 1]
[Dm]It's [F]all so quiet in her[Dm]e[Am]
If [C]only - i got's to do this
[Dm]If only - yeah
[Am]

[Verse 2]
[C]I know i'm takin' ya for
[Dm]granted as hell
Don't [F]care, [Dm]never talk,
[Am]when we do, not well
Come [Dm]home, [C]all [Dm]tired and straight to bed
U b like; remember salaat
An[Am]d i be like; forget that
I missed the [C]first 4
[Am]Anyhow [Dm]can't deny my conscious is broke
[F]Double standard[Am] - 100, ask
me why and i choke
Sist[C]as stay home [Dm]while
brothas hit the clubs
[F]Tale spinning [C]on fast lanes,
[Am]drinking [C]all up
I give a damn [Am]about u'd walk
[Dm]a 1000 miles for me

[Verse 3]
[F]I won't even go down to
the nearest [Am]corner shop for ya
[C]Food on the table every
[Dm]time i run home
Praying while the tv [C]is
on, my [Am]focus all gone
[C]Can't take ya seri[Dm]ous when
ya blame me for ya misery
[F]Why can[Dm]'t ya be mo like his [Am]or her son,
i'm sick of it
[C]I wish i could turn bac[Am]k the han[Dm]ds of time
If [F]i could, if i could
[C]I would be ya p[Am]erfect son
Instead of [C]these tears [Am]in du[Dm]'a

[Verse 4]
[F]Oh [Dm]my frie[Am]nd
Can't take [C]it any[Dm]more
The pain, [F]the rain,
the [Dm]good [Am]times [C]missin'
Help [Dm]me sing
If only - we could be [Am]down
If only - we'd work it out [Dm]now
If only - we'll be strong,
[Am]we got's[Em] to ke[C]ep on holdin' on[Dm]

[Verse 5]
It [Dm]wasn't love at first sight,
[F]not even [Dm]the first night
Came [Am]later build on mutual respect insight
[F]Ok we [Dm]argue [F]a lot [Dm]yaaaaa told
[F]u i was leaving[Dm]
So [Am]we say stupid [C]things when we mad
but we don't mean 'em
[Dm]Come on how did u expect
us to connect so fast
We [Am]knew zero about each other
got hooked up by my [F]mother[Am]
[Dm]U was digging bollywood while
i was in to beats and rhymes
[Am]Before it all was abou[Em]t me[C]
Now it's all about [Dm]us

[Verse 6]
You see relationship's build [Dm]on
support and trust
And we [Am]had cracks in both
We came close to a di[C]vorce
[Dm]Then he came in and things
got better we thought
All though diaper[Am]s for our[C] baby's
bootie we could barely [Am]afford
[Dm]For now me and you we
scrubbing floors together
But [Am]someday inshallah we
gonna floss [C]to gether
[Dm]It's been a bumpy ride so
far we'll face it together
No mat[Am]ter the weather
It's [Em]me you and [C]ours f[Am]orever[Dm]
[F][Dm]

[Verse 7]
[Dm]Si[F][Dm][Am]
[C][Dm][Am]
[Em]solo[C] yo [Dm]pudiera
Viajar en el tiempo
Si [Am]solo [C]yo pudiera
Volver por un momento
[Am]Y se[Dm]ntarme junto a usted
Y hablar de hijo [Am]a padre
Sentarme junto a usted

[Verse 8]
De amigo a compadre
[Dm]Le diria hay una cosa que no
se [F]debe de olvidar
La fa[Am]milia es lo primero, [C]es elemental
[Dm]Pero supongo que en este
punto
[F]Somos diferentes y [Am]como [C]reprocharle
Si usted es el ausente
Y [Dm]ahora que ya no esta de que sirve
No se quien tiene culpa [Am]per o una
cosa [C]quiero decirle
Mi madre me [Dm]hizo hombre
Ella es fuerte y con orgullo
A ella le debo to[Am]do mi
pasado mi [C]fu turo

[Verse 9]
Why [Dm]why so q[Am]uiet
[C]Baby ya [Am]think by [Dm]now
We'd [F]knew [C]any [Am]better
Why [Dm]all this f[Am]ightin'
Maybe we should [C]talk[Am][F]
Instead of all this hid[Dm]in'
[Am][C]

[Verse 10]
[Dm]If only - we could be down[Am]
If only - we'd work it out [Dm]now
If only - we'll be strong,
[Am]we got's[Em] to keep[C] on hold[Dm]in' on

[Verse 11]
If [Dm]only - we could be [Am]down
If only - we'd [C]work it [Am]out n[Dm]ow
If only - we'll be strong,
[Am]we got's[Em] to ke[C]ep on holdin' [Dm]on

[Verse 12]
[Dm]Nobody [G]hol[Dm]din'[Am] us down[Dm]
No [F]more
[Dm]Oh n[Am]o
