INTRO: G Bm Em C D G D Em C
G D/F#
She never really had a chance On that fateful moonlit night
Em C
Sacrificed without a fight A victim of her circumstance
G D/F#
Now that I've become aware And I've exposed this tragedy
Em C
A sadness grows inside of me It all seems so unfair
Em D G
I'm learning all about my life By looking through her eyes
G D/F#
Just beyond the churchyard gates Where the grass is overgrown
Em C
I saw the writing on her stone I felt like I would suffocate
G D/F#
In loving memory of our child So innocent, eyes open wide
Em C
I felt so empty as I cried Like part of me had died
Em D Am
I'm learning all about my life By looking through her eyes
C
And as her image Wandered through my head
G D
I wept just like a baby As I lay awake in bed
Am C
And I know what it's like To lose someone you love
Em D
And this felt just the same
G D/F#
She wasn't given any choice Desperation stole her voice I've been
Em C
given so much more in life I've got a son, I've got a wife
G D/F#
I had to suffer one last time To grieve for her and say goodbye
Em C
Relive the anguish of my past To find out who I was at last
Em D
The door has opened wide
C Am G
I'm turning with the tide Looking through her eyes.
