She wonders where he is, and who it is that he’s with, she wonders when he gets home,
C G C G
will he still be the man the she knows, will he still cheat on her, will he still beat
on her,

will he still talk down to her, will he still try to hurt her
[Chorus]
Am F
she’s goanna take her life in her own hands, get away from that awful man,

goanna bloody up the bath water, in the bubbles that he bought her,
Am F
man wont he be sorry, when he finds her cold pail body,
C G Am
little does she know the real devils goanna take her soul away
[Verse 2]
C G
with the first bite of that cold thin steel, it becomes all to real,
F C G
she cries and throughs that blade away, while the bubbles pop and fade,
C G
she decides to pack her things, everything but that diamond ring,
F C G
put a band aid on her brand new scar, put her whole life in the car
[Chorus]
Am F
she’s goanna take her life in her own hands, get away from that awful man,
C G
in the car that he bought her, leaving nothing but that cold pink water,
Am F C
man wont he be sorry, when he aint got no body, the real devils goanna have to wait,
G Am
today her life finally changed
[Verse 3]
C G
he’ll wonder where she is, and who it is that she’s with,
F C G
he’ll wonder if she’s coming home, the answer to that is no,
C G F
he can no longer cheat on her, talk down to or beat on her, now that she’s gone away,
C G C
and cast off the chains of that diamond ring
