She's 15 and she's leaving home
Db                              Ab          Eb
Living on the streets where she don't feel alone
Fm
Daddy's always gone and mommy's on the sauce
Db                            Ab     Eb
Living in a mansion it's easy to get lost
      Fm                          Db
She's going to a place where they understand
Ab                           Eb
Baby on the way her womb's a garbage can

Who said anything about a good life

Wasted again - I think you need a new best friend

Nervous in the alley off the boulevard
Db                       Ab    Eb
Shaking all over and the panic starts
        Fm
You see she needs to get her prescription filled
        Db                Ab        Eb
And she knows exactly how she'll be billed
Fm                           Db
Nervous on the alley waiting for a fix
          Ab                  Eb
She ain't got no money just a couple of tricks

Bbm
Who said anything about a charmed life
           Ab  Eb  Db  Eb
This one's bad bad bad bad

Dying in the alley waiting for her man

Carrying her child and a sleeping bag
Fm

       Eb               Ab    Eb
So she passes on to the other side
Fm                        Db

Ab                       Eb
