Brought Up That Way chords by Taylor Swift

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

G+G
Emily comes home from school
            G6G6
Grabs on to her daddy's hand
    G+G
He says baby girl what's wrong with you
                 G6G6
She says, please don't make me go back there again
      C majorC                  C2
She said I wish there was some way to make 'em stop it
   C majorC                 G+G     D MajorD -once
So he drives down to that principal's office, and says

     G+G
I didn't bring her up
       G6G6
So they could cut her down
     C majorC
I didn't bring her here
       C2
So they could shut her out
     G+G
I live my whole damn life
      G6G6
To see that little girl smile
      C majorC               C2
So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?
             G+G
She wasn't brought up that way

G+G
Emily's home late again
            G6G6
He sees that boy drive away
    G+G
Oh, but something's different this time
           G6G6
She doesn't have too much to say
      C majorC                     C2
She said he tried, but there just some things I won't do
        C majorC                  G+G
And through the tears she said I couldn't do that to you
    D MajorD -once
And he said,

 G+G
I didn't bring you up
      G6G6
So he could wear you down
     C majorC
Take that innocent heart
      C2
And turn it inside out
     G+G
I live my whole damn life
     G6G6
To see my little girl smile
     C majorC           G+G
So don't let nobody take that away
              G6G6
You weren't brought up that way

(G+G G6G6 C majorC C2 C majorC G+G D MajorD)

G+G
The phone rings on a rainy night
         Cadd9Cadd9
Says it's Officer Tate
     G+G
He said, Sir there's been an accident
           Cadd9Cadd9
You better come down here right away
 C majorC               C2
A augmentedA drunken driver missed an over-pass
  C majorC          G+G       D MajorD
And Emily, she's fading fast, he says God

     G+G
I didn't bring her up
       G6G6
To watch them lay her Down
    C majorC               C2
Nearly killed me the day they put her mama in the ground
      G+G           G6G6
Only thing kept me alive was that little girl's smile
  C majorC            G+G
So please don't take that away
      C majorC        G+G
It won't be easy taking her today
             G6G6
She wasn't brought up that way

G+G
He stands over the hospital bed
        C majorC
Emily opens her eyes
