0Everything's gonna be alright
             D1
1 She whispers to herself
                      Am2
2 She was only 6 years old that night
                         C3
3 As she hid behind that shelf
                        G4
4 Cuz daddy had a little too much to drink
                              D5                    Am6
5 And mama didn't want her to feel the pain she felt
                          C7
6 But she still felt the pain
                     G8
7 Well 10 years they came and went
              D9
8 And dad was gone
                          Am10
9 So she looked for love in other men
                     C11
10 And tried to act strong.
     G12                               D13
11Oh broken hearts and Scars in only places she could see
      Am14                                  C15
12 Cuz she just wanted, she just wanted to feel something
    G16
13And as she sat there on her bed
 D17
14 thinkin bout what those girls said
 Am18
15 tears streamed down her eyes
      C19
16 She cried
17
18
               G20
19 If there's a God out there
 D21
20 Please hear my prayer.
      Am22
21 I'm lost and I'm scared
          C23                     G24
22 and I've got no where else to go
                         D25
23 I've come a long, long way
                         Am26                   C27
24 But I'm not sure I can make it much farther
                G28                   D29
25 So if you're listening, could you give a helping hand
            G30        Am31       C32
26 To your daughter.
G33
27 Well her path started to change
     D34
28 She reached out and grabbed God's grace
     Am35                   C36
29 And finally, she saw a light
30 -no chords-
31 Until that night where
 G37
32 She decided one drink was alright
         D38
33 and one thing led to another
       Am39
34 Well next thing you know, 9 months go by
       C40

36
37
      G41
38 And as she laid there in that bed
 D42
39 Stroking that small angel's head
 Am43
40 Tears streamed down her eyes
      C44
41 She cried
               G45
42 If there's a God out there
    D46
43 Please here my prayer.
     Am47
44 I'm lost and I'm scared
          C48                        G49
45 and I've got no where else to run
                         D50
46 I've come a long, long way
                        Am51                   C52
47 But I'm not sure I can be the best mother
              G53                     D54
48 So if you're listening, could you give a helping hand
