1st Fret\r\n\r\nPlay: [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] throughout.\r\n\r\n\r\nI can't believe you're gone\r\nWhy'd you leave\r\nSometimes it hurts so bad\r\n\r\nVerse 1:\r\nHe's the kind of guy\r\nthat runs the streets\r\nBut he treats me good\r\nand he makes his dough illegally\r\nThat's how he's taking care of me\r\nand I respect the fact that\r\nHe's chosen that life\r\nbut it keeps me up late at night\r\nAnd I just can't spend my time\r\nwondering where he's at, is he okay?\r\nwanna be by his side\r\nbut I commit a crime\r\nBonnie to his Clyde\r\nI don't wanna live that way\r\n\r\nChorus:\r\nI love my baby so\r\nBut he's not here no more\r\nHard for me to understand\r\nSo I wrote him this song\r\nCouldn't look him in his eyes\r\nKnew I couldn't change his mind\r\nSo I wrote this melody\r\nAnd I'm singing sweet goodbye\r\n\r\nVerse 2:\r\nThough he promised that he would never put me in harm's way\r\nThat's something that he can't control\r\nCause the game remains the same\r\nNow he says he wants out of it\r\nBut he's in too deep\r\nAnd the only way that he will go is killing him or leaving me\r\nSo this is where I'm at and it hurts so bad\r\nThat I had to choose if I wanna live, or die with you\r\n\r\nChorus:\r\nI love my baby so\r\nBut he's not here no more\r\nHard for me to understand\r\nSo I wrote him this song\r\nCouldn't look him in his

him want to live this life\r\nAnd as he went away\r\na tear fell from my eye\r\nAnd there's no turning back\r\nThere's only goodbye\r\n\r\nChorus:\r\nI love my baby so\r\nBut he's not here no
