Tabbed By Eric Exley


Intro: G#..B-Bb-G#-B...Bb-B-Bb (3X)
Bb(pm)-B(pm)


Verse 1:
G#            B
When we were kids
         Bb                                       G#   B
We were told to respect our elders and what they did
                 Bb
Only speak when spoken to
G#              B
When she was stripped
         Bb                                      G#     B
Of the trust bestowed to us by the one that she loved
                           Bb
She didn't know she could run to You


E*(16X)


CHORUS:
B       Bb              G#                                        B
It's a sad time we live in, little girls grow up scared of their dads
        Bb                        G#
It's a feeling they should never have
B             Bb            G#                                   B
What kind of person can do this, how worthless is the word innocence
        Bb              G#
To her dear old loving dad?


Verse 2:
G#           B
Now her mom sits
Bb                                         G#
Wondering why her baby goes through these fits
           B               Bb
Of anger, torment, and of rage
G#              B
Oh please dear God
Bb                                      G#   B
Pick up this small beauty and show her You
                     Bb
And all the wonders You can do


E* (16X)


(CHORUS)


(INTRO (muted))


G#         F*   E*
He showed her exactly how to hate
D#                    C#             E*   D#
Him a full grown man, she was only eight
G#        F*       E*
He stole what was most precious to her
D#                            C#            E*    D#
Nothing was more sacred, and cannot be returned
