Intro:
Verse 1:
Am
If my man was fighting,
Dm7
Some unholy war,

Straight, shook up,
Beside him,
With strength,
Dm7
He didn't know,
E7
It's you I'm fighting for.
Chorus 1:
Dm
He can't lose,

With me in tow,
Dm
I refuse,

To let him go.

At his side,
Dm7
And drunk on pride,

We wait for the blo-ow.
Verse 2:

We put it in writing,
Dm7
But who you writing for?

Just us on kitchen floor.
Am
Justice done,
Reciting,
Dm7
My stomach standing still,
E7
Like you're reading my will.
Chorus 2:
Dm
He still stands,
Am
In spite of what,
His scars say,
Dm
I'll battle till,
Am
This bitter finale.
DmDm/maj Dm7
Just me, my dignity,
GmFE7
And this guitar case.

Am
If, if my man is fighting,
Dm7
Some un-holy war,

And I will stand beside you.

But who you fighting for?

B, I would have died too;
E7
I'd of liked to.
