Bm Once BmupoAn a timGmaj7e there was a F#girl.
Bm In her BmearAly yGmaj7ears she had toF# learn
Bm How toBm grAow up living in Gmaj7a war that she calleF#d home
Bm NeverBm knAew just where to Gmaj7turn for shelter fromF# the storm
Em It hurt me to see the pain Bm across my mother's face
Em Everytime my father's fist would
F Put her in her place
G Hearing all the yelling I woulBmd cry up in my room
G Hoping it would be over Fsoon...
G Bruises fade, father, but the Dpain remains the same
G And I still remember how you Dkept me so afraid
G Strength is my mother, for all the Dlove she gave
And ev'ry Amorning that I wake, I look Emback at yesterday
And I'Bmm okBm...A Gmaj7 F#
Bm I oftenBm woAnder Gmaj7why I carry all thisF# guilt,
Bm When it'sBm yoAu that helped Gmaj7me put up all theseF# walls I built
Em Shadows stir at night through aBm crack in the door
Em The echo of a broken childF screaming "please, no more"
G Daddy, don't you understand the daBmmage you have done?
G For you it's just a memory, but for Fme it still lives on...
G Bruises fade father but the Dpain remains the same
G And I still remember how you Dkept me so afraid
G Strength is my mother for all the Dlove she gave
And ev'ry Amorning that I wake, I look Emback at yesterday...
C It's not so eG/Basy to forgAmet
C All the mG/Barks you leftAm along her neck
C When I was throG/Bwn against cold staAmirs
C And ev'ry daG/By afraid to cAmome home,
In fear of, what I might Fsee next...
G Bruises fade, father, but the Dpain remains the same
G And I still remember how you Dkept me so afraid
G Strength is my mother, for all the Dlove she gave
And ev'ry Amorning that I wake, I look Emback at yesterday
And I'm Bmok... Bm A Gmaj7 F# Mm...
I'm Bmok...
