Im Catching Hell Chords by Natalie Cole

[Am] _ [C] _ _ Tonight, I [Bb] just want to talk to the ladies.
[Gm] [F] Oh, fellows, you're cool, but girls,
[C] [D] if you got a good man, you better [A] keep him.
[C] Oh, I know you're saying right [Am] now, what does she know?
Who is she to tell me about my situation?
[Gb] _ [Dm] [F] Well, I don't know your situation,
but [G] whatever it is, you should try to [C] stay together.
You know that big argument that you had the other night,
remember?
[Bb]
[C] Well, [Am] today it's not nothing.
[C] Just [Gb] don't let him leave you, [D] honey,
because then you'll find out
that it [A] wasn't those real big things [C] you loved about him.
[Am] It was the real [D] small things.
[C] Go [Dm] on and laugh, but it's true.
You know, things that you've seen [G] a thousand times
around the house, but never paid [C] any attention to,
like helping with the groceries, [Am] helping [C] in the yard,
[Gm] painting, [C] repairing, and paying the bills.
[D] _
But you know, [A] now, all I [C] have is [Am] memories and regrets.
[D]
I could have given our love a chance to grow,
[Dm] but no, I had to challenge it and be heard.
[G]
[A] Let me tell you something.
_ [C] That female liberation stuff, _
[Bb] [C] I don't know, sometimes [F] I don't think [C] it's worth it.
[Am] [D] And [A] I'm really feeling, [C] _ [Am] feeling _ [D] _
[Am] _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ kind of bad, y'all.
_ [C] I'm catching hell _ [Em] _ [C]
living _ [Am] here alone.
_ [C] _ [D] _
_ [F] I never [C] realized, oh Lord, [D] _ [G] that you [D] mean [Dm] so much to me. _ _
[G] _ _ [F] [C] I'm catching hell _ _ [Gm] living [C] _ [F] here alone.
[C] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ [C] I want you to come back, baby, [Gb] come back.
[F] [Dm] This here's where you [C] belong, oh [Dm] yeah.
[C] _ _ [Am] _ [D] If I could replay, [Gbm] if I could replay,
[D] _ _ oh, [G] seen again, [D]
[E] oh well.
[Ab] You know that I [D] would never, never [Bm] say to him
[E] that our love, our [A] love is at its [Em] end.
[A] And whoa, [Ab] [Dm] you [D] know that I would _ _ ease on back
and _ let [G] confusion pass on [D] by.
_ [E] _ [D] I took a [Ab] [D] fool's way out [Bm] _
_ [E] _ [A] without one good [G] reason [D] why.
[G] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Am] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] Alone, [Dm] [G] I _ [D] _ [F] didn't believe it could [Dm] be.
You know all the pressure on me, oh.
[Bb] _ _ _
[Gm] _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [Eb] _ [F] _ _ [F] [Bb] Living here [Dm] alone, alone, alone, [G] alone, alone, alone.
I'm here alone [B] to [F] tell you the truth,
to [Dm] tell you the truth.
_ _ [Gm] _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ [Bb] _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am]
I don't have too [F] much more to say except,
somebody told me that [Bb] if [F] you got something
that's good to you [G] and you don't use it,
[B] you might lose it.
[F] _ [Dm] So girls, [G] hold on to your good friend.
And [C] don't let go.
[Gm] _
_ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _
_ [Eb] _ [A] _ _ [F] _ [Bb] _ _ [F]
[Dm] Hold [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Dm] _
[G] on.
_ [Gm] _ _ [Bb] _ [F] _ [Bb] _
_ [F] _ _ [Bb] Yeah.
Whoa, [F] _ _
Lord, I'm like a cage in hell, whoa.
[Bb] _ _ [F] _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ [F] _ _ [Dm] _
