[Intro]
| Gm7/C | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
      Cm                                      Eb
I can hear the couple fighting right next door
            F           Eb            Bb        Cm
Their angry words sound clear through these thin  walls
Around midnight, I heard him shout,
                Eb
"Unfaithful one"
      F                   Eb      Bb    Cm
And I knew right then the axe was gonna fall
                  Bb
It's because of me
                  Cm
It's because of me

[Verse 2]
  Cm
I heard him shout,
                        Eb
"Who is he?" she mumbled  low
         F
He said, "Baby,
          Eb     Bb    Cm
don't you lie to me no more"
                                              Eb
And I'm listening through these thin walls in silent shame
       F
As she called out my name,
Eb      Bb        Cm
  I was right next  door
                  Bb
It's because of me
                  Cm
It's because of me
       Bb
Because  of me
                  Cm
It's because of me

[Chorus]
Oh,
        Ab                     Bb                    Cm
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 breaking hearts
        Eb
Oh, whoaoh

[Verse 3]
   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
                                           Eb
Right next door I hear that woman start to cry
         F
I should go to her,
Eb    Bb           Cm
  but what would I say?
                  Bb
It's because of me
                  Cm
It's because of me
       Bb
Because  of me
     Cm
Young  buck!

[Chorus]
Oh,
        Ab                     Bb                    Cm
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 breaking hearts
Oh,
        Ab                     Bb                    Cm
she was right next door and I'm  such a strong persuader,
yeah
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 breaking hearts
