B

She sits a-

lone by

a lamp-

FB

post____

Eadd9

try'n to find a

thought that's escaped her mind.

B

B

She says, "Dad's

the one I

love

FB

the most___

Eadd9

but Stipe's

not far

behind."

B

B

She never

lets me in,___

FB

only

tells

me where she's

been

Eadd9

when she's had

too much

to drink.

B

B

I say that

I don't care,

I just

FB

run my hands

through

her dark hair,

and I

Eadd9

pray to God

you gotta

help me fly

away.

B

And just

let her cry

B

This morn-

ing I work

up alone,

FB

found a

note

standing by

the phone

Eadd9

sayin', "Maybe,

maybe I'll

be back some-

B

day."

B

I wanted to

look for you,

you walked

FB

in. I didn't

know just what

to do,

so I

Eadd9

sat back down,

had a beer

and felt

B

sorry for

myself.

Sayin',

let her cry

B

Last night I

tried to leave,

FB

cried so much,

I could not

believe

Eadd9

she was the

same girl I

fell in love

with long a-

B

go.

B

She went in

the back to

get high.

FB

I sat down

on my couch

and cried,

yelling,

Eadd9

"Oh mama

please help. me

Won't you

B

hold my

hand?"

And

let her cry
