Nowhere To Stand Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]As [C]thing[G][Am][G][D]
s [G]start to surface
And tears come [C]on down
The scars [G]of a childhood in a small [D]town
The hurt she pushed [G]inward
Is starting to [C]show
Now she'll do [G]some talking,
but [D]he'll never [G]know[D][G]
Tables have turned now,
with a child of [C]her own
But she's blind [G]to [D]the [G]difference,
what's taught is what's [D]known
Numbed by [G]reaction
Stripped of all [C]trust
A young [G]heart is broken
Not [D]aware that it's [G]just a family tradi[C]tion
The strength of this [G]land,
where [A]what's right and wrong is the [D]back of a hand, turns [C]girls
into women, a [G]boy to a [Em]man.
The [G]rights of the [C]children
have nowhere to [G]stand
The rights of the [C]children have
nowhere [G]to stand
Memories of children
Some written in [C]stone
Some they [G]get buried not to be [D]shown
Still they [G]do linger deep down in[C]side
Like a seed [G]has been planted
and [D]won't be [G]denied
A family tradi[C]tion
The strength of this [G]land
Where [A]what's right and wrong
is the [D]back of a hand
Turns [C]girls into women, a [G]boy to [D]a m[Em]an
The [G]rights of the [C]children
have nowhere to [G]stand
No, the rights of [C]the children
have nowhere to [G]stand
