Masters Of War-Staple Singers chords
Start Jamming...
My master's a war
Give you all a big gun
Build a big man
[Eb]
Your heart can't hold
And your [Eb] heart can't dance
I just want you to know
Speak to your man
You never done nothing
Real to the soul
You're saving my world
For me
Like you're a loved one
For me
And you try to come around
You're bad to the core
[Bb]
[Eb]
I'm worse than you
You know God's trying
To
[Bb] get up on you
From your love and you
My tears are never
Yeah, my tears
[F] [Eb]
Was a little girl
I love to cry
And you said that you're wise
I thought that I
Should've knew better
No, I'm not gonna do it
Why you don't believe me?
So [Bb] I don't care anymore
[Bb] [Eb]
[Gb] That's what you've done
You're a bad mess
Oh no no
I've got a gun
I've made it all
On my side
[Db] All the money that you [Gb] made
All the love that you showed
[Eb]
One day
You're gonna get some
Yes,
[Ebm] ma'am
Yes, I will
That late [Eb] afternoon
I was like
[Ebm] Oh my
[Eb] God
I'll spend all your money
And I'm sure that you'll pay
[Bbm] [Bb] [Eb]
