Chords for My Joy

_ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Eb] This song _ [Bbm] _ is to _ [Eb] that _ [F] _
_ person.
[Gm] I don't even mention his name.
[C] _ They [Ab] said I [G] couldn't do nothing without him. _
_ Mm [Eb]-mm.
_ [F] _
Who [Fm] are you to tell _ me [Cm] _ that I [Eb] can't go _ on _
[C] without you?
_ [Fm] _
Why are you telling [G] me _ [Cm] I'm _ never [Eb] gonna _ _ survive? _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] But once upon a time, _ _ _ _ yes, [Eb] I _ _ believed _
[C] that lie. _ _
[Fm] But sorry, no way, no [F]
how, _ [Ab] _ you [Eb] can't control _ _ _
[Db] my [Bb] mind. _
Because _ [Ab] if I [Db] _ bought [D] _ you [Ab] with an end [E] all, it [Fm] might be [F] all.
I [Bbm] would have never left [Ab] you alone, and [Db] I wouldn't be [D] on my own,
and [Ab] I never, _ _ never would have brought _ you.
[C] [Fm] No, no, [Ab] no, there ain't no way you gonna take [Eb] away my joy,
my peace, [C] my [Fm] strength.
Mm-mm.
_ No, no, no, there ain't no way you gonna take away [Eb] my joy,
_ my [C] peace, my [Fm] strength. _ _
Thank you for all the _
[Ab] time, _ _ love, all [Eb] the pain _ [Db] you gave [Bb] me. _
[Fm] The hatred shows to _ me.
_ [Bb] Taught me how [Eb] to _ love [Cm] _ _
[Db] myself.
_ [Eb] _ _
[Fm] It's funny how you try _ [Cm] to break down [Eb] my pride [G] _ _
[C] and my spiritual.
_ [Eb] _
[Fm] It doesn't [Cm] even matter [Ab] now, _ because I've done [Eb] enough. _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _
Because _ [Ab] if _ _
[Db] _ I [D] bought you [Ab] with an end [E] all, it [Fm] might be [Ab] all.
I [Bbm] would have never left [Ab] you alone, and [Db] I wouldn't be [D] on my own,
and [Ab] I _ never would have brought [Db] you.
This song.
[Eb] _ _ _
[Fm] No, no, no, there ain't no way you gonna take away [Eb] my joy,

_ No, no, no, there ain't no way you gonna [Cm] take away [Eb] my joy,
my [C] peace, my strength.

[Db] _ _ _ [D] _ No [Ab] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[Ab] way.
No [F] way. No way.
No, no, no, no.
Never [Bbm] _ would've [Ab] found, never would've found, never would've [D] left,
never would've [Ab] lost. _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] Ah
_ [Eb] _ _ _
[Fm] you _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ take away [Eb] my [Cm] joy, my jo_
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _
_ Mm _ _ -mm.
_ _ I'm telling you
_ telling [C] you
you take [Ab] away
Can you hear [Fm] my cho _ _ -cho [Cm]-cho?
_ _ [Fm] Cho-cho [Eb]-cho? _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ [Fm] Just take away my cho _ [Ab]-cho _ -cho.
