[D]
[E] Did you know, did you know, did you know, did you know, [C#m] did you know, did you [F#m] know, did you know, that I love you?
[D] Did you know, did you know, did you know, did you [E] know, did you, did you?
[C#m] [D]
[F#m] I'll admit things ain't been the way I thought they would be
[A] Didn't expect so much stress to develop between [E] me and you
I knew that it wasn't easy, but sometimes when we fight it [F#m] don't seem like God's design
But then I hear words you said, and I promised [D] I would stand for you and be true
Well, the bad and [E] the good, and I know what it means to be committed
[C#m] So here's a word for [D] you, but you just ain't with it
[F#m] Stay down, we're almost to the very best cause
[D] Stay down, you'll always be the pride in my heart
[E] Stay down, we took in as a test
Stay down, yeah we got a [C#m] lot of work
Stay down, I know it ain't been the [D] best, but it certainly ain't [F#m] been worth
Stay down, the trauma will not last forever
[D] Stay down, we'll be together as long as we're [A]
together
[E] One day we'll look back on this, we'll be like remembering this
And [C#m] the pain is gonna make us [D] smile, but soon the envy, [F#m] stay down
I ain't gonna lie, at times you amaze me
You be talking and I swear that you're crazy
[E] But I learned a long time ago
[C#m] That pride don't help, it only [D] hurts, and I just want you to know
[F#m] I need you baby, I'm just like Weezy baby
Not breezy like a spawner baby, but the wife of George and we're moving on [E] now
Ten years from and we're looking like a plan
I'm looking like your woman and you're looking like my [C#m] man
We're looking like queer when the haters look [D] fake
Cause they're gonna hear me [F#m] say
Stay down, we're almost to the very best cause
Stay down, you'll always have a place in my heart
[E] Stay down, we took in as a test
Stay down, you know we got a lot of [C#m] work
Stay down, I know it ain't been the [F#m] best, but it certainly ain't been worth
Stay down, the trauma will not last forever
[D] Stay down, we'll be in love if we're [A] together
[E] One day we'll look back on this, we'll be like [C#m] remember this
And it's gonna make us [D] smile, cause in the end [F#m] we stay down
Understand you are the one in [D] my heart
And I'm [E] holding yours so we can't live apart
Things stop making sense, we'll figure it out
[C#m] To this, [D] and I don't wanna walk out
[F#m] Everything ain't gonna be [D] how we like
And what is worth keeping if it [A] didn't [E] take a bite
Your healing isn't me, and my healing [C#m] isn't you
Stay [F#m]
