Verse
Bm
If I ever have a friend who knows my hell
A
He'll tie a savior rope to the backyard well
Fmadd9
So if I change my mind when I get down
Bm F#m
I'll pull my body up before I drown
[Verse]
Bm
And if I ever have a lover who finds my pain
A
I will leave his ass in the fire and the rain
Fmadd9
Because a man who knows, and still he stays
Bm F#m
That ain't no man who you'd want around
[Instrumental]
Fmadd9 F#m Bm Gmadd11
[Verse]
Bm
If I ever have a child, and in her eyes
A
I see the same kind of hurt that I had in mine
Fmadd9
I'll know the devil ain't come once
Bm F#m
No, he came twice
