Verse:
      DbDb        Eb MajorEb
She had a ring of gold and a three-year-old
    AbAb
And a house with a wooden fence
   DbDb          Eb MajorEb
The doctors tried and her family cried
      AbAb
‘Cause it didn’t make no sense
   DbDb    Eb MajorEb       F minorFm      DmDm
But somewhere deep inside she knew God knew better
      BbmBbm                   DbDb     Eb MajorEb
So in the middle of the night… dim night light…she started her letter

It said…

     DbDb           Eb MajorEb
Well she got the note that her momma wrote
    AbAb
On the day she turned eleven
    DbDb      Eb MajorEb
On the envelope she read the words…
    AbAb
To my little girl from heaven
   DbDb    Eb MajorEb     F minorFm      DbDb
She couldn’t remember the smell of her skin
   BbmBbm                 DbDb     Eb MajorEb
Oh but on that night it was like she was holding her again

When she read…
