Cm Eb
I can hear the couple fighting right next door
F Eb Bb Cm
their angry words sound clear through these thin walls.
Cm Eb
Around midnight I heard him shout unfailthful one
F Eb Bb Cm
And I knew right then the axe was gonna fall
Bb Cm
It's because of me, it's because of me
[Verse 2]
Cm Eb
I heard him shout who is he, she mumbled low
F Eb Bb Cm
He said Baby don't you lie to me no more
Cm Eb
And I'm listenin' through these thin walls in silent shame
F Eb Bb Cm
As he called out my name, I was right next door
Bb Cm
It's because of me, it's because of me
Bb Cm
Because of me, it's because of me
[Chorus]
Ab Bb Cm
Oh, she was right next door, and I'm such a strong persuader
Ab Bb Cm
She was just another notch on my guitar
Ab Bb Cm
She's gonna lose the man that really loves her
Ab Bb Cm
In the silence I can hear their breakin' hearts
Eb Cm Bb Ab G
Oh oh whoa

Cm Eb
At daybreak I hear him pack and say goodbye
F Eb Bb Cm
I can hear him slam the door and walk away
Cm Eb
Right next door I hear that woman start to cry
F Eb Bb Cm
I should go to her, but what would I say
Bb Cm
It's because of me, it's because of me
Bb Cm
Because of me, Young Buck
[Chorus]
Ab Bb Cm
Oh, she was right next door, and I'm such a strong persuader
Ab Bb Cm
She was just another notch on my guitar
Ab Bb Cm
She's gonna lose the man that really loves her
Ab Bb Cm
In the silence I can hear their breakin' hearts
