[Bm] Four years old
[D] with my back to the [G] door.. [D]
[Bm] All I could hear
[D] was the family [G] war.. [D]
Your [Bm] selfish hands
[D] always expecting [G] more.. [D]
Am [Bm] I your child
[D] or just a charity [G] award.. [D]
You have a [Bm] hollowed out heart
But its [G] heavy in your chest
I [Em] try so hard to fight it
[D] But its hopeless,
[Bm] hopeless [G] hopeless
Youre [Em] hopeless
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Id love to leave you
[G] alone, but I cant let you [D] go
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Put the bottle [G] down for the love of a
[D] daughter.. [Bm] .. [D] .. [G]
Its [Bm] been 5 years,
[D] since weve spoken [G] last.. [D]
And you [Bm] cant take back
[D] what we never [G] had.. [D]
I can be [Bm] manipulated
[D] only so many [G] times.. [D]
Before even "I [Bm] love you"
[D] starts to sound like a [G] lie.. [D]
You have a [Bm] hollowed out heart
But its [G] heavy in your chest
I [Em] try so hard to fight it
[D] But its hopeless, [Bm] hopeless.. [G]
Youre [Em] hopeless
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Id love to leave you
[G] alone, but I cant let you [D] go
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Put the bottle
[G] down for the love of a [D] daughter
[Bm] Dont you remember Im your baby girl
[F#] How could you push me out of your world
[D] Lied to your flesh and your [A] blood
Put your [D] hands on the ones that you
[Bm] swore you loved
[Bm] Dont you remember Im your baby girl
[F#] Howd u throw me right out of ur world
So [D] young when the pain had [A] begun
Now [D] forever afraid of [Bm] being loved
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Id love to leave you [G] alone,
but I cant let you [D] go
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father.. [D] .. [Bm]
[G] Oh father, [Bm] please father
[D] Put the bottle
[G] down for the love of a [D] daughter.. [Bm] .. [D]
[G] For the love of a [D] daughter.. [Bm] .. [D] .. [G]
