[Verse 2]
Ah, listen [G]everybody
Especially you guys
Is it right to [C]be [G]left alone
When the one you love is never home?
[C]I love too hard
Yeah, my friends sometimes say
But I [G]believe, oh I believe
That a boy should be loved that way
But it [D]hurts me so inside
See [C]him treat me so unkind
A- some[G]body, a- somewhere
[C]Tell [G]him [C]it ain't [G]fair

[Verse 3]
Can I get a [G]witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
[C]Some[G] body?

[Verse 4]
Is it [C]right to be treated so bad?
When you've given everything you had
Keep on toss[G]ing in my sleep
'Cause I haven't seen
my baby all week
Now, you [D]people you do agree
That [C]this ain't the way
love's supposed to be
A- let me [G]hear you
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah,
yeah, [D]yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 5]
Up early in the [G]morning
With him on my mind
Just to find out all night
That I've been crying
But I be[C]lieve, oh,
that a boy is a girl's best friend
So, I'm gonna [G]stick by
him 'til the very end
But he [D]caused so much misery
I [C]forget how love's supposed to be
Some[G]body, somewhere tell him
It ain't fair

[Verse 6]
Can I get a [D]witness?
Can I get a [G]witness?
I want a witness

[Verse 7]
Witness, witness, witness, witness
[G]
[C]Everybody knows,
especially you boys
That a [G]love can be sad
But half a love is twice as bad
Now you [D]people you do agree
That [C]this ain't the way
love's supposed to be
Let me [G]hear you
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 8]
I want [G]a witness
[C]Can I [G]get a witness?
[C]I w[G]ant a witness[G]
Come on, witness
[G]I want a witness, hey
Come on, witness
I want a witness
