Verse 1:
Bm
Four years old with my
            G
back to the door
Bm
All I could hear
               G
was the family war
     Bm
Your selfish hands
            A    G
always expecting more
Bm
Am I your child or
            A   G
just a charity award?


Refrain:
           Bm
You have a hollowed out heart
         G
But it’s heavy in your chest
  Em
I try so hard to fight it
D
But it’s hopeless
Bm      G       Em
hopeless You’re hopeless


Chorus 1:

  Oh father  please father
D                G
  Put the bottle down for
the love of a daughter

Verse 2:
          Bm
It’s been 5 years since
             G
we’ve spoken last
        Bm
And you can’t take back
              G
what we never had oh
           Bm
I can be manipulated
A              G
  only so many times
               Bm
Before even “I love you”
                       G
starts to sound like a lie


(Repeat Refrain)

Bm
Don’t you remember
              D
I’m your baby girl?
F#/Bb
How could you push me
            D
out of your world?

Lied to your flesh
and your blood

Put your hands on the ones
that you swore you loved

So young when the pain had begun

Now forever afraid of being loved
