Intro
E - C#m - A - B- E*
Verse
E
On the porch she will sit
C#m
Light another cigarette
A B E*
And take a sip of anything that makes it right
E C#m
She’s outside, trying to hide from the fight just inside,
A B E*
Where her mom and her dad destroy each other
E
And on the phone she will call
C#m
Every boy, yeah, one and all
A B E*
They will touch her in all the right places
E
And in her room, she will slide
C#m
Down the bed and try to fly,
A B E*
And she will fall once again for the feeling
A C#m
And as he grabs her brown hair,
E
She is faking
A C#m E
That the feeling he gives her is real
A C#m
As the floor underneath the bed is
E B A
Breaking in two
A B E
She will finish what she starts with “I love you”
E
So from her head to her toes,
C#m
Nervous hands and runny nose,
A B E*
All of this just for one night of feeling
E
And in her ears she will hear
C#m
All the things that hide her fears
A B E*
Of dying young and making plans for the future
E
And all the marks on her arms
C#m
Symbolize a fractured heart
A B
And all the boys that were smart
E*
Left her alone
E
So from the roof, she will fly
C#m
15 feet down the side
A B E*
Of the house where she once was happy
A C#m
Yes is true, she’s aware
E
That she is breaking
A C#m E
And its true, she cant do anything
A C#m
Well in her blue underwear
E B A
She is thinking how
A B
In jesus’ precious name
E
She got here
A C#m
Well it’s sad but its true
E
She is ending
A C#m E
But for now, she will pray for some wings
A C#m E B A
On a black Cadillac she is landing hard
A B E
Yet her parents’ biggest worry is the car
There you go.
