Innocent Girl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm[C] no[G]t t[C]he fool I once was[G]
I learned [D]from heartaches
what to ad[C]dress
It's always love's [G]lessons,
they're the hardest to [D]learn
Play in the sun too long,
you will get [C]burned
I'm still seeing [G]red,
but my heart's not quite [D]dead
I still feel I'm willing to [G]try
But I'm no [C]longer an innocent [G]girl,
I've had my [D]taste of this tasteless [C]world
My heart was once [G]open
as a clear blue sky
[Em]But streets have grown cloudy
[D]and heavy clouds cry[C]
Polluted my [G]head,
but my heart's not quite [D]dead
I still feel I'm willing to [G]try
Try to be [Em]good, try to be strong
[D]I try to [F]stay hopeful
that it's not been too [C]long
Since I was a child
[G]with the world before me
[D]But we all know children live in worlds of me[C]
[G][D][Dsus4][D][C]
[G][D][Dsus4][G]
And [C]I'm not the child of that [G]past,
I learned the hard [D]way I grew up [C]fast
The school of those [G]books
Can never compare
[Em]To the heartaches of life[D]
That have made me all [C]too weak
Lessons of [G]grief
I've passed and survived
[D]I still feel my heart can reviv[G]e
And learn to give [Em]love,
learn to give trust
[D]Learn it could be [F]so full
and still it would not [C]burst
And feel like [G]it's young,
young as fresh [D]snow
But we all know winter's
when the harshest [C]winds blow
No [C]longer an innocent [G]girl
I've had my [D]test of this tasteless [C]world[G]
You
