_ _ _ He's [A] no hero _ _ _ out of [Gm] both, _ _ _ but I [Bb] love him.
[G] _ _ _
_ _ _ Yes, [B] [Gb] I love [Dm] him.
[Gm] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [G] Two or three girls [Bb] I see _ _ that he likes as [Ab] well [G] as me. _
_ _ [Eb] But I love him. _ _
_ _ I don't [Gm] know why I should.
[A] _ _ _ _ _ He [Bb] isn't true. _ _ _ _ _
He _ beats [Ab] me too. _
_ _ _ _ _ What _ can I [G] do? _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ Oh, my man, I [Eb] love him so.
_ [Ab] _
_ He'll [A] never know.
[F] _ [Cm] All my life is just [Eb] despair.
_ [Bb] _
But I [Eb] don't care _ [Bb] when he takes me in his [Fm] _ arms.
[Bb] _ _ The [Fm] world is [Bb] bright.
_ [Gm] _ All right.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
[Ebm] What's the difference if I [Cm] say _ _ [Dm] I'll [Abm] go away
_ [G]
when I know [Ab] I'll come back on _ [Abm]
my [Db] knees someday?
_ _ [F] _
_ _ For whatever my [Gm] man _ [Eb] is, _ _ [Gm] _
[C] I'm _ _ _ his _
