[Intro]
G# C# Emaj7 F#
[Verse 1]
G# C#
Staring out my window
Emaj7 F#
Pistol in my palms
G# C#
Tears soaking my pillow
Emaj7 F#
As I write this song
G#
I caught my lady being untrue
C# Emaj7 F#
Oh what was I supposed to do? Oh no
G#
I had to prove myself a man
C# Emaj7
Cause clearly she don't think I can, oh no
F#
[Chorus]
G# C# Emaj7
Singing yes, I shot my baby down that day
F#
G#
Singing yes
C# Emaj7
That n**** too, he stole my place
F#
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down)
[Interlude]
G# C# Emaj7 F# x2
[Verse 2]
G#
Step inside the room, I still have dreams about
C#
it, what did I see?
Emaj7
His arms are wrapped around you like he's been
F#
about it, I couldn't believe
G#
Expression that I never seen you wear before
C#
Clothes that I bought strewn on the floor
Emaj7
Quietly I closed that bedroom door
F#
Headed downstairs to the kitchen drawer
[Chorus]
G# C# Emaj7
Singing yes, I shot my baby down that day
F#
G#
Singing yes
C# Emaj7
That n**** too, he stole my place
F#
(Shot down, shot down my baby, I shot down my place)
[Outro]
G# C# Emaj7 F# x4
G#
Singing yes
C# Emaj7 F#
I shot my baby down that day
G#
Singing yes
C# Emaj7 F#
That n**** too, he stole my place, my place
G# C# Emaj7 F# x4
