Capo 1

C.                                 G5      
You felt alone since you were only seven
A5                                 F5
Your mother didn't have a clue what to do
C5                                 G5
You cried each night until you were eleven
A5                                 F5
Youd pray to God to bring your daddy back to you
C5                                 G5
it got much worse when you were in high school
A5                                 F5
From guy to guy you wondered why you never felt a thing
C5                                 G5
You wondered if you'd ever find a lover
A5                                 F5
who'd someday get down on his knees holding a diamond ring
C5                                 G5
the summer's taking me to california
A5                                 F5
but I won't go until you know that what I say is true
C5                                 G5
when everything you've ever loved has left you
A5             F5             C5
I'll be there yeah I'll be there for you
