[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][Am]
[Dm][Am]

[Verse 1]
Let's do this dirty [Dm]laundry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
Let's do this dirty [Dm]laundry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
When you're soaked in tears for [Dm]years,
it never airs out
When [Am]you make pain look this
good it never wears out
This dirty [Dm]laundry, this dirty laundry
[Am]

[Verse 2]
While my [Dm]sister was on stage,
killing it like a [Am]motherfucker
I was enraged,
feeling it like a motherfucker
[Dm]Bird in a cage,
you would never know what I was [Am]dealing with
Went our separate ways,
but I was happy she was killing it
[Dm]Bittersweet, she was up, I was [Am]down
No lie, I feel good for her,
but what do I do now?
For[Dm]get the records, off the record,
I was going through some [Am]bullshit
Post Survivor, she on fire,
who wanna hear my bullshit?
[Dm]Meanwhile this nigga
putting his hands on [Am]me
I swear [Dm]y'all don't know the
half of this in[Am]dustry

[Verse 3]
[Am]
[Dm]Let's do this dirty laundry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
Let's do this dirty [Dm]laundry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
When you're soaked in tears for [Dm]years,
it never airs out
When you [Am]make pain look this
good it never wears out
This dirty [Dm]laundry, this dirty laundry
[Am]

[Verse 4]
And [Dm]it's almost been a decade
Hiding behind them [Am]black shades
Roll up like it's all good,
right up out that Escalade
[Dm]Fix my make-up, "Get "Get it together,
Kelly, [Am]get it together"
Then we make up, well get it together,
nigga, get it [Dm]together
Kinda lucky, I was in her [Am]shadow
Phone call from my sister,
"What's the matter?"
[Dm]She said, "Oh no baby,
you gotta [Am]leave"
I'm on the kitchen floor, he took the keys
[Dm]I was mad at everybody,
[Am]I mean everybody
Yeah, her, her, her her [Dm]everybody
Five years later, I got my shit down [Am]pat
Think I had it good,
and they don't know how bad
[Dm]Fooled everybody, except myself[Am]
Soaking in this hurt, bathing in the dirt

[Verse 5]
Dirty [Dm]laundry, this dirty laundry
[Am]Let's do this dirty laun[Dm]dry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
When you're soaked in tears for [Dm]years,
it never airs out
[F]When you [Am]make pain look this
good it never wears out
Dirty [Dm]laundry, [Am]'dry

[Verse 6]
[Am]
So [Dm]here I am in the spin cycle
[Am]we're coming and we're going
Nobody can notice
And I [Dm]was trapped in his house,
lying to my [Am]mama
Thought it could get no worser as
we maximize the drama
[Dm]Started to call them people on him,
I was [Am]battered
He hitting the window like it was me,
until it shattered
[Dm]He pulled me out, he said,
"Don't nobody [Am]love you but me
Not your mama,
not your daddy and especially not [Dm]Bey"
He turned me against my [Am]sister
I missed you

[Verse 7]
Let's do this dirty [Dm]laundry,
this dirty [Am]laundry
This dirty [Dm]laundry, this dirty [Am]laundry
When you're soaked in tears for [Dm]years,
it never airs out
[F]When you [Am]make pain look this
good it never wears out
This dirty [Dm]laundry, dirty laundry
[Am]

[Verse 8]
[Dm]Love is pain and pain is [Am]love
He had me fucked up
[Dm]Love is pain and pain is [Am]love

[Outro 1]
He had me fucked [Dm]up
[Am]
[Dm][Am]
[Dm][Am]
