C5
Her parents never took
F5                  C5
the young girl to church
        F5           C5
Never spoke of his name
       A5            G5
never read her his words

 C5
Two non-believers walkin'
F5              C5
lost in this world
             F5          C5
took their baby with them
        A5          G5
what a sad little girl

  C5
Her Daddy drank all day
      F5          C5
and mommy did drugs
        F5         C5
Never wanted to play or
       A5         G5
give kisses and hugs


She'd watch the T.V

and sit there on the couch

While her Mom fell asleep

and her Daddy went out


 A5                         F5
And the Drinking and the fighting
 C5                 G5
Just got worse everynight
        A5                     F5
behind their couch shes been hiding
 C5                      G5
oh, what a sad little life

 C5
And like it always does
     F5             C5
the bad just got worse
       F5     C5
with every slap
          A5      G5
and with every curse


C5
Untill her Daddy
       F5              C5
in a drunk rage one night
       F5           C5
Put a gun to her mom
      A5            G5
and then took his life



A5                       F5
And some people in the city
C5                   G5
took the girl far away
       A5            F5
To a new mom and a new Dad
 A5                 G5
Kisses and hugs everyday

C5
The first day of sunday school
     F5
the teacher walked in
          C5
And the small little girl
               A5       G5
looked at a picture of him
C5
She said I know that man
     F5             C5
Up there on that cross
   F5              C5
I dont know his name
 A5                G5
but I know he got off


A5
Cause he was there in
     F5
my old house and
     C5                    G5
he held me close to his side
    A5                 F5
as I hid their behind our couch
 C5                          G5
The night that my parents died
