I Was The Rebel (She Was The Cause) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
And [D]that's why, if I was a rebel
and she was the cause
Please listen to my story,
judge, it's [A]sad but it is [D]true
[G]Divorce, it ain't a [D]happy thing,
let me [E]tell this tale to [A]you
This [D]hearing can't compare
to what a [G]cheating heart can [Abdim]cost
[G]She [D]took the [G]cake, left me the crumbs
And that's [D]why, [A]if [D]I was a rebel
and [A]she was the [D]cause
Why ain't they like they used to be,
the [A]way they was back [D]home
When a [G]man was treated [D]like a king,
his wo[E]man was his [A]own
But you [D]give them the city living,
they'll [G]cheat and double [Abdim]-cross
She [D]made the [G]bills, [D]I put the c[G]alls
And that's [D]why, if I was a rebel
and [A]she was the [D]cause[A][D][G][D]
[E][A][D][G][Abdim][D][G]
[D][G]
And that's [D]why, if I was a rebel
and [A]she was the [D]cause
She took me for my money,
she [A]took me for my [D]love
She [G]left me, stuck me with [D]a mortgage,
then drove [Em]off my brand new [A]Ford
And [D]then I put my foot down
be[G]fore it all was [Abdim]lost
I [G]found my temper when [D]she lost her [G]love
And that's [D]why, if I was a rebel
and [A]she was the [D]cause
I worked my fingers to the bone
I [A]took a brand new [D]job
[G]Scrimping, sav[Gm]ing [D]for that home
You [E]know, a darn near [A]star
Thing[D]s were fine until that night
I [G]caught her with the [Abdim]balls
She [D]took the [G]horse, [D]left me the [G]hogs
And that's [D]why, if I was a rebel
and she [A]was the [D]cause
And that's why, if [D]I was a rebel
and [A]she was the [D]cause
