Her Parents never took the young girl to church 
       F5           C5           A5           G5 
Never spoke of his name, never read her his word 
C5                        F5            C5 
Two nonbelievers walking lost in this world 
           F5         C5           A5         G5 
Took their baby with them what a sad little girl 


C5                           F5         C5 
Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs 
      F5         C5            A5         G5 
Never wanted to play or give kisses and hugs 
C5                          F5            C5 
She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch  
          F5        C5              A5         G5 
while her mom fell asleep and her daddy went out  


        A5               F5 
and the drinking and the fighting  
C5                    G5 
just got worse every night  
       A5                   F5 
behind their couch she'd be hiding  
C5                    G5 
oh what a sad little life

C5                           F5            C5 
And like it always does the bad just got worse  
     F5     C5        A5    G5 
with every slap and every curse  
C5                    F5              C5 
until her daddy in a drunk rage one night  
       F5          C5       A5            G5 
used a gun on her mom and then took his life  


         A5            F5 
and some people from a city  
C5                 G5 
took the girl far away  
     A5            F5 
to a new mom and a new dad  
C5                     G5 
kisses and hugs every day

C5                                  F5              C5 
her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in  
      F5            C5                A5         G5 
and a small little girl stared at a picture of him  
C5                           F5             C5 
she said I know that man up there on that cross  
  F5              C5          A5          G5 
I don't know his name but I know he got off  


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