Lyrics

A (C6)lone,

(C6)list (G)less

break (C6)fast ta (G)ble in an (C6)oth er wise emp ty (G)room.

(C6/9)Young girl,

(C6/9)vi o lins,

(C6/9)cen ter of her own at ten tion.

But

moth (C6/9)er reads a loud, child tries (C6/9)to un der stand it,

(C6/9)tries to make her proud.

The (C6/9)shades go (Em7)down.

It’s in (Em6)her head,

paint (Em6)ed room,

can’t (Em6)de ny

some (Em6)thin’s wrong.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not (C6/9)fit to.

The (C6/9)pic ture kept will (C6/9)re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not (C6/9)fit to.

The (C6/9)pic ture kept will (C6/9)re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me.

She holds the hand that holds

her down.

She will

rise a bove.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not fit to.

The (C6/9)pic ture kept will re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not fit to be.

The pic ture kept will re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not (C6/9)fit to.

The (C6/9)pic ture kept will (C6/9)re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me daugh ter, not (C6/9)fit to be.

The (C6/9)pic ture kept will (C6/9)re mind

(G)me.

Don’t (C6/9)call me.

The shades go

down.

The shades go

down.

The shades go,

go,

go.
