[Verse 1]
[Am]Four[F] years o[Am]ld[C]
[Am]With my back to the [C]door[F]
[Am]All I could hear
Was the family [F]war
Your [Am]selfish hands
Always expect[G]ing [F]more
Am [Am]I your child?
Or jut [G]a charity [F]award?

[Verse 2]
You have a hol[Am]lowed out heart
but it's [F]heavy in your chest
I [Dm]tried so hard to fight [C]it but
it's hopeless
[Am]Hopeless[F]
You're [Dm]hopeless[F]
Oh father[Am], please father
[C]I'd love to leave you alone
[F]but I can't let you go
Oh father[Am], please fa[C]ther
Put the bottle [F]down for
the love of a daughter

[Verse 3]
[F]It's bee[Am]n five years
Since we've spoken [F]last[C]
And you can[Am]'t take back
What [C]we never [F]had
[C]Oh, I can be ma[Am]nipulated
only so [G]many [F]times[C]
Before even [Am]"I Love You"
Starts to sound like [C]a lie
[F]

[Verse 4]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Don't you remember
I'm your baby girl?
[G#aug]How could you push me
our of your world?
[Am]Lied [C]to your flesh and your blood
[Am]Put your hand [F#dim]s on the ones
that you swore you loved
[Am]Don't you remember
I'm your baby girl?
[E]How could you throw me
right out of your [Abaug]world?
So [C]young when the pain had be[G]gun
Now [C]forever [F#dim]afraid
[D]of being[F#dim] loved[F]
