A5      E5      F#5
Little girl terrified
              D5          E5          A5
She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal
A5          E5          F#5
A home is no place to hide
            D5           E5            A5
Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels


F#5            D5
Every day's the same
      A5      E5   F#5
She fights to find her way
      D5      A5        E5            F#5
She hurts, she breaks, she hides and tries to pray
B5                  D5        B5            D5
She wonders why does anyone ever hear her when she cries?


A5           E5          F#5
Today she's turning sixteen
          D5                E5              A5
Everyone singing, but she can't seem to smile
A5          E5               F#5
They never get past arms length
            D5            E5      A5
How could they act like everything is alright?
A5                E5            F#5
She's pulling down her long sleeves
        D5            E5            A5
To cover all the memories that scars leave
A5                  E5      F#5      
She says, "? maybe making me bleed 
            D5            E5            A5
Will be the answer that could wash the slate clean"


B5
This is the dark before the dawn
F#5
The storm before the peace
A5                  B5
Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change and
A5            B5
God is watching over you

He hears you
F#5            D5
Everyday's the same
A5            E5      F#5
She fights to find her way
      D5      A5        E5            F#5
She hurts, she breaks, she hides and tries to pray
B5            D5            B5            D5
She'll be just fine, 'cause I know He hears when she cries.
