Louisville Slugger Chords - Have Nots

Verse 1

E B Tomorrow she'll put make-up on the bruises C#m A Tomorrow she'll be making up excuses E But I've known you since we were three B What makes you think you can lie to me C#m And I'm trying to respect your privacy A Despite the fact that it's killing me... E B You say you love him but I don't know why C#m A He beats you up, he don't provide E B So you're stuck working doubles down at the local dive C#m A Dodging dirty hands for a petty wage but you bottle up the rage cos you gotta survive

Verse 2

E B That sticky summer night in his backseat C#m A He made you bleed, planted his seed E B Now you've got not one but two more mouths to feed C#m A I know you wanted your kid to have a dad but name is not the same as deed E B I know you know there's more to life than this C#m A Taking the blame, the pain, whenever he gets pissed E B Nothing stronger than a mother's love for her only kid C#m A Except for maybe her battered bones, bruised by blows from his father's fists

Chorus 2

E G# I got a Louisville Slugger in the back of my ride C#m A E Make the call and I'll be there by your side C#m G# A Hey girl you don't have to take that shit from anybody E G# Got a Louisville Slugger in the back of my ride C#m A Say the word and I'll make him fucking cry E C#m G# A You are my friend I will defend until the end

E G# I got a Louisville Slugger in the back of my ride C#m A Hey girl you gotta decide if this is how you gonna live your life E G# Trapped like a rat in a bad situation C#m A Frozen by feelings of fear and frustration E G# I got a Louisville Slugger in the back of my ride C#m A It's yours for the taking, your rage more than justified E G#m C#m Seeing red, black and blue, and you know that it's true A Yeah you know he won't stop til you're through
