[Intro 1]
[Em][C][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
[Em]It's four o'clock in the morning
[C]and I'm too afr[Em]aid to [C]sleep
[Em]I never know when I'll hear
[C]him sneak through my [Em]door[C]
[Em]Been paying me little visits
for more than a year now
[C]If [Em]I could only fight back,

[Verse 2]
I wouldn't take any more
[Em]
So who [C]speaks [Em]for [D]me when
[Am]I'm too young to f[Em]ight[D]?
Who speaks for [Em]me in[D] the[Am]
black of [Em]the night?[D]
Who speaks [Dsus4]for me?

[Interlude 1]
[Em][C][Em]

[Verse 3]
Last kid off [Em]the bus,
[C]I'm standing [Em]in the [C]driveway[Em]
Still feeling [C]the sting from yester
[Em]day's [C]bruise[Em]
The smell of whiskey and smoke
spilling out the doorway
Step inside or run [D]away,
[C]I'm not old enough [Em]to choose

[Verse 4]
[Em]So who speaks for me[Dsus4] when
[Am]I'm too young to f[Em]ight[D]?
Who speaks for [Em]me? W[Dsus4]ho's
[Am]gon na make this r[Em]ight?[D]
[Dsus4]Who speaks for m[D]e?
[Em][C][Em]

[Verse 5]
[F]You can't pretend that
you don't know me
[G]I am the kid next door
[Am]The quiet one you never speak to
[Bb]The [C]problem you ignore[Bb]

[Am][Em][D][Dm][G][Am][G][C][G][Em]
[C][Em][F#m][Bsus4]

[Verse 6]
[Em]Three o'clock in the morning,
I'm sitting in the [C]driveway[Em]
Momma told me to run,
[C]but I only got thi[Em]s far[C]
[Em]I heard the screams and the shots,
I heard my momma crying
Now they're taking her away
in a black and white care

[Verse 7]
So who speaks for [Em]me w[Dsus4]hen
[Am]I'm too young to f[Em]ight[D]?
Who speaks for [Em]me in[Dsus4] the middle[Am]
of [Em]the night?[Dsus4]
Who [D]speaks for [Em]me?

[Verse 8]
