2 AM, a knock at the door, [A] an officer standing [Em] there [D] on the porch.
There was a line written all across [G] his face.
He knew that [D] something terrible [A] must have [D] taken place.
He'd rather have a beating than to tell this man the news.
[A] As a part of his job, there's [G] something he has to [D] do.
Sir, I'm here to tell you, your daughter's been [G] killed.
The only [D] cause we found [A] was a bottle [D] in the field.
Who bought the whiskey [G] for my little [D] girl?
[G]
She's [D] just a baby, way too young to leave [A] this world.
[D] If I find him, I'll have him by his head, [G] that's for sure.
And who [D] bought the whiskey [A] for my [D] little girl?
[Em] [D]

He stood at the doorway as the officer drove away.
[A] His broken heart was flooded [G] with anger and [D] rage.
He walked over to the cabinet where his whiskey [G] was kept.
But instead [D] of the bottle, he [A] found a letter that [D] she had left.
Dad, I took your whiskey and went out for the night.
[A] We wanted to have some fun, [G] my girlfriends [D] and I.
Please don't get mad, and I hope [G] you won't mind.
You know I'll [D] pay you back.
[A] I love you.
Goodbye.
