- verse 1 


Em          C 
She was confused and 
 G               D 
abused in this life 
Em             C 
Emotional and violent moments 
G                   D 
Seemed to take the longest time 
Em             C 
Every single knockout dragout 
G                D 
Fight they ever had 
Em                      C 
he starts to laugh he starts to lie 
      G             D 
with Suddenly psychotic eyes. 




- Chorus: 

C                 D 
Every night she cried herself 
      Em                Bm 
to sleep she didn't recognize 
C                      D               Em 
Her own face in the mirror black and blue 
C             D 
so afraid Intimidation 
Em                Bm 
like a child she hides away 
           C             D 
he would always try to justify 
             Em     C    G   D 
what wasn't true 
       Em C      G    D

- verse 2: 

Em         C 
Taken for granted 
       G            D 
she sleeps by the phone 
Em             C 
waiting for a call from him 
         G                D 
but it seems he's never coming home 
Em        C 
14 beers later 
         G               D 
He is there without an answer 
Em               C 
Once again she questions his lies 
     G               D 
he goes to bed with no reply 




- Chorus: 

C                   D 
Tomorrow morning different story 
 Em               Bm 
and he'll be a different guy 
       C           D               Em 
he'll justify her black eye with another lie 
    C                   D 
She packs her bags in great temptation 
     Em                Bm 
he´s on his knees again he cries 
   C                     D 
a hug & a kiss and a don't know why 
      Em 
as a tear drops from her swollen eye 
  Bm 
Apologies until tonight and another 
                     Em C G D 
Justified  black eye 
       Em C      G    D 
Justified  black eye 
       Em C      G    D       Em
