Verse
         EOn (022100@1)the porch she will sit
       C#mLight (x13321@4)another cigarette
            A (x02220@1)       B (x2444x@1)                  E*
And take a sip of anything that makes it right
          E (022100@1)                          C#mShe's (x13321@4)outside, trying to hide from the fight just inside,
           A (x02220@1)         B (x2444x@1)                E*
Where her mom and her dad destroy each other
             EAnd (022100@1)on the phone she will call
       C#mEvery (x13321@4)boy, yeah, one and all
            A (x02220@1)         B (x2444x@1)             E*
They will touch her in all the right places
             EAnd (022100@1)in her room, she will slide
         C#mDown (x13321@4)the bed and try to fly,
              A (x02220@1)        B (x2444x@1)             E*
And she will fall once again for the feeling
        

            A (x02220@1)           C#mAnd (x13321@4)as he grabs her brown hair,
         EShe (022100@1)is faking
           A (x02220@1)      C#m (x13321@4)         EThat (022100@1)the feeling he gives her is real
        A (x02220@1)       C#mAs (x13321@4)the floor underneath the bed is
 E (022100@1) B (x2444x@1)    ABreaking (x02220@1)in two
           A (x02220@1)             B (x2444x@1)                EShe (022100@1)will finish what she starts with "I love you"


              ESo (022100@1)from her head to her toes,
         C#mNervous (x13321@4)hands and runny nose,
        A (x02220@1)           B (x2444x@1)             E*
All of this just for one night of feeling
             EAnd (022100@1)in her ears she will hear
         C#mAll (x13321@4)the things that hide her fears
           A (x02220@1)              B (x2444x@1)            E*
Of dying young and making plans for the future
              E (022100@1)And all the marks on her arms
      C#mSymbolize (x13321@4)a fractured heart
             A (x02220@1)             BAnd (x2444x@1)all the boys that were smart
            E*
Left her alone
              ESo (022100@1)from the roof, she will fly
   C#m15 (x13321@4)feet down the side
         A (x02220@1)            B (x2444x@1)        E*
Of the house where she once was happy
  
        A (x02220@1)         C#mYes (x13321@4)is true, she's aware
               EThat (022100@1)she is breaking
         A (x02220@1)          C#m (x13321@4)     EAnd (022100@1)its true, she cant do anything
             A (x02220@1)      C#mWell (x13321@4)in her blue underwear
        E (022100@1) B (x2444x@1) AShe (x02220@1)is thinking how
     A (x02220@1)             BIn (x2444x@1)jesus' precious name
         EShe (022100@1)got here
           A (x02220@1)        C#mWell (x13321@4)it's sad but its true
          EShe (022100@1)is ending
         A (x02220@1)          C#m (x13321@4)           EBut (022100@1)for now, she will pray for some wings
       A (x02220@1)     C#m (x13321@4)        E (022100@1)B (x2444x@1)  AOn (x02220@1)a black Cadillac she is landing hard
           A (x02220@1)             B (x2444x@1)         EYet (022100@1)her parents' biggest worry is the car
