[Intro 1]
[G]
[C][G][Am][G][C][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[C]She
walks [G]to school with the [Am]lunch
She [G]packed
[C]Nobody kno[G]ws what she's
[Am]Holdin' [C]back[G]
[C]Wearin' the[G] same dress
She [Am]wore [G]yesterday
[C]She hides the [G]bruises with lin[Am]en
And lace
[C][G][Am][G]

[Verse 2]
[C](Oh oh)
The teacher [G]wonders but she
[Am]Doesn't ask[G]
[C]It's hard to [G]see the pain
Be[Am]hind the [G]mask
[C]Bearing the bur[G]den
Of [Am]a secret [G]storm
[C]Sometimes she [G]wishes she was
[Am]Never born
[G]Through the wind

[Verse 3]
[C]and the rain
[G]She stands har[Am]d as a stone
[G]In her wor[C]ld that she
[G]can rise [Am]above
But [G]her dream[C]s give her wings
[G]And she fli[Am]es to a pla[G]ce where
She's [C]loved
Con[D]crete angel
[C][G][Am][G][C][G][Am]

[Verse 4]
[C]Somebody [G]cries in the [Am]middle
Of [G]the night
[C]The neighbors hea[G]r, but they turn
[Am]Out the [G]lights
[C]A fragile sou[G]l caught in the han[Am]ds
Of [G]fate
[C]When morning com[G]es
It'll [Am]be too late
[G]Through the wind

[Verse 5]
[C]and the rain
[G]She stands har[Am]d as a sto[G]ne
In her [C]world that she [G]can rise [Am]above
But [G]her [C]dreams give her wings
[G]And she fli[Am]es to a pla[G]ce where
She's [C]loved
Con[D]crete angel

[Verse 6]
[C]A[G][Am][G][C][G][Am]
[C]statue
[G]stands in [D]a shaded [C]pla[G]ce
An angel girl with an upturned face
[C]A name is wri[G]tten on a
[Am]polished [Dsus4]rock[G]
[C]A broken hea[G]rt that the[Am] world forgot
[G]Through the wind

[Verse 7]
[C]and the rain
[G]She stands har[Am]d as a sto[G]ne
In her [C]world that she can [G]rise [Am]above
But [G]her [C]dreams give her wings
[G]And she fli[Am]es to a pla[G]ce where
She's [C]loved
Con[D]crete angel
