Killing Him
CHe didn't come home til the light of the day
He wasn't with her he would say
They fought through the morning and all of the day
She'd have to kill him to get him to stay
CKilling him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
CShe gave him everything that she had
Changed anything he said was bad
FLove weighed on her heart like marble stone
CFlash of the knife, he was gone
FHe said he would give her the sun and the moon
FNow all she has is a six by eight room
CKilling him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
CShe thought of him every night and all of the day
Missing her baby she did away
Blowing kisses through the concrete sky
Hoping they'd reach him on heaven high
FLove weighed on her heart like marble stone
CFlash of the knife, he was gone
FHe said he would give her the sun and the moon
FNow all she has is a six by eight room
CKilling him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away
Killing him didn't make the love go away

Killing Him

He didn't come home til the light of the day

He wasn't with her he would say

They fought through the morning and all of the day

She'd have to kill him to get him to stay

Killing him didn't make the love go away

She gave him everything that she had

Changed anything he said was bad

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone

Flash of the knife, he was gone

He said he would give her the sun and the moon

Now all she has is a six by eight room

Killing him didn't make the love go away

She thought of him every night and all of the day

Missing her baby she did away

Blowing kisses through the concrete sky

Hoping they'd reach him on heaven high

Love weighed on her heart like marble stone

Flash of the knife, he was gone

He said he would give her the sun and the moon

Now all she has is a six by eight room

Killing him didn't make the love go away
