Chords for Vince Gill at CRS 2018

[B] I think you have to go really far enough to [G] tell you how important it is.
[N] I made a record 44 years ago, my first record, it's a 17 year old.
_ [B] _ _ And _ _ _ _ _ _ [D#] all I know is I didn't have [Cm] an expectation [F#] in the whole of it.
[B] We pooled our money together and made this record.
And lo and behold, a DJ played it.
I got to hear it on the radio. _ _
_ Because of that, I was given this great sense of hope _ as a kid.
[C#] And it's astounding [C] what a little hope can do to inspire somebody to [F#] press on.
[B] _
And I still have that same hope, and I'll tell [F#m] you that all [B] the time.
_ _ _ It's just true. _
_ _ _ _ _ You come up here to get to sing one song, and [F#] you kind of go,
what the hell are you going to [B] sing?
I think that _ [D#] the greatest way to live is [C#] to welcome the moment that you're in,
[E] and the time frame [B] that you're in.
I chose this song when I wrote it some years [F#] ago,
and [B] _ _ never really knew _ where this song came from,
other than we're living in a time right now when
_ _ _ [Em] finally [G#] people are having the courage to kind of speak out about being abused.
And [B] I think that is beyond healthy and beyond beautiful
to see people finally _ have a voice for being wronged.
And maybe this song came from a personal experience for me.
I was in seventh grade and a young, dumb kid.
I had a gym teacher that acted inappropriately [C#m] towards me
[N] and was trying to do things that I didn't know what the hell was going on. _
And I was just fortunate that I got up and I ran. _
She jumped up at me, and I don't know why.
[B] And _ I don't think I ever told anybody in my whole life,
but even what's been going on has given me a little bit of courage to _ speak out to.
And I'm going to [C] sing you this song that [B] was inspired by all the people here. _ _

_ [E] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ [B] _ _ your [G#m] hands where they [E] don't belong
[B] _ And [F#] _
_ [B] _ _ _ [G#m] now her innocence _ [E] _ [F#] is dead and [B] [F#] gone _
[B] She _ _ _ [G#m] feels dirty, _ [E] she [F#] feels [B] ashamed _ _
Because _ [F#] of [G#m] you _ [F#]
[B] she's [E] forever _ [B] _ alone
[F#] _
[B] Too _ _ [G#m] afraid _ to [E] tell someone

She [B] _ _ _ [G#m] cries for Jesus _ [E] _ [F#] to ease the [B] pain _ _
Because _ of [G#m] you _ [F#] _

[E] Can't _ _ you just leave the [B] child alone
I _ _
[E] _ _ can hear the angels in [G#m] heaven _ moaning
_ _ [F#] _
[B] _ [E] _ _ God is [F#] watching _ [B] and he _ [E] knows your name _

_ [B] _ _ _ [F#] _ [B] _ _ _
[G#m] you're a stranger _ [E] _ or flesh and [B] blood
_ [F#] There'll [B] _ _ _
_ [G#m] come a day _ [E] _ you face that [B] judge
[F#] You [B] _ can [G#m] beg for mercy, _ [E] _ but the truth [B] remains
_ _ Because _ [F#]
of [G#m] you [F#] _ she's forever _
[B] changed
_ [F#] _ [E] Can't _ _ you just leave the [B] child alone
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ [E] I can [B] hear the [F#] angels in [G#m] heaven moaning
