Cm                                                    Cm7           
I can hear the couple fighting right next door 
                  Dm7            Cm7     Bb                   Cm 
Their angry words sound clear through these thin walls. 
              Cm                                            Cm7 
Around midnight I heard 'im shout "Unfaithful one" 
          Dm7                    Cm7        Bb     Cm 
And I knew right then the axe was gonna fall. 
                      Bb                                      Cm (arp.) 
It's because of me                It's because of me  
 
                  Cm                                          Cm7  
I heard him shout "Who is he", she mumbled low 
                Dm7             Cm7    Bb      Cm 
He said "Baby, don't you lie to me no more" 
              Cm                                             Cm7
And I'm listening through these thin walls in silent shame 
              Dm7                     Cm7    Bb        Cm 
As she called out my name I was right next door 
                      Bb                                     Cm (arp) 
It's because of me                It's because of me 
  Bb                                                         Cm (arp.) 
Because of me                     It's because of me 
 
CHORUS 
                     Ab                         Bb                       Cm 
Oh, 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                     Cm7 Cm Bb Ab G
In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts  -Oh Wo oh oh

         Cm                                            Cm7
At daybreak I can hear him pack, say goodbye. 
         Dm7                    Cm7       Bb   Cm                       
I can hear him slam the door and walk away 
          Cm                                                   Cm7 
Right next door I can hear that woman start to cry 
             Dm7              Cm7   Bb  Cm                          
I should go to her, but what would I say 
                       Bb                                Cm (arp.) 
It's because of me          It's because of me 
                 Bb                  Cm (arp.) 
Because of me               Young heart
