Chords for The Little Girl ~ Lyrics

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ Her parents never took the young girl to church, _ never spoke of his name, never read her his
[Ab] _ word.
_ [Db] Few non-believers walking lost in this world _ took their baby with them.
_ What a sad little [Ab] girl.
_ _ [Db] Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs, _ never wanted to play or [Bbm] give kisses and _ [Ab]
hugs.
_ [Db] _ She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch while her mom fell asleep _ and her daddy went [Ab] out. _ _ _
And the [Bbm] drinking _ _ and the _ [Gb] fighting _ _ _
[Db] just got worse every [Ab] _
night.
_ _ _ Behind their [Bbm] couch she'd [Gb] be _ hiding.
_ _ _ [Db] _ Oh, what a sad little [Ab] _ life. _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
And like it always does, the bad just got worse with every slap _ and [Bbm] every _ [Ab] _
curse.
_ [Db] _ Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night _ used a gun on her mom and [Bbm] then took his [Ab] life. _ _ _
_ And some _ people [Bbm] _ _
from the [Gb] _ _ city _ _
_ [Db] took the girl far _
[Ab] away _ _ to a _ new [Bbm] mom and [Gb] a new _ _ dad.
_ [Db] _ Kisses and hugs every _ [Ab] day. _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
The first day at Sunday school the teacher walked in and the small little girl stared
at a picture of [Ab] him.
_ _ [Db] She said, I know that man up there on that cross. _
I don't know his name, _ but I [Bbm] know he got [Ab] all. _ _
_ He was _ there [Bbm]
in [Gb] my old _ house _ [Db] _ and held me close to his _ [Ab] _ side.
_ Yes, I _ [Bbm] hid there behind [Gb] our _ _ couch _ [Db] the night that my parents _ [Ab] died. _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
