I'm Ok — Simple Sheet Music

Once up (Bm)on a time, there was a (F#7sus)girl. In her (Bm)ear ly years, she had to (F#7sus)learn how to (Bm)grow up liv ing in a (Gmaj7)war that she called (F#7sus)home; nev er (Bm)knew just where to turn for shel ter from the storm. It hurt me to see the pain a cross my moth er’s face ev ’ry time my fa ther’s fist would put her in her place. Hear ing all the yell ing, I would (Bm)cry up in my room, hop ing it would be o ver (F#)soon. Bruis es fade, fa ther, but the (D)pain re mains the same, and I still re mem ber how you (D)kept me so a fraid. Strength is my moth er for all the (D)love she gave. And ev ’ry (A)morn ing that I wake, I look (Em)back at yes ter day, and I’m O (Bm)K. I of ten (Bm)won der why I car ry all this (F#7sus)guilt, when it’s (Bm)you that helped me put up all these (F#7sus)walls I built. Shad ows stir at night through a (Bm)crack in the door, the ech o of a bro ken child scream ing, “Please, no more.” Dad dy, don’t you un der stand the (Bm)dam age you have done? For you it’s just a mem o ry, but for (F#)me, it still lives on. (Em)back at yes ter day... It’s not so eas y to for get all the marks you left a long her neck; when I was thrown a gainst cold stairs; and ev ’ry day, a fraid to (Am)come home, in fear of what I might (F#)see next. Bruis es fade, fa ther, but the (D)pain re mains the same, and I still re mem ber how you (D)kept me so a fraid. Strength is my moth er for all the (D)love she gave. And ev ’ry (A)morn ing that I wake, I look (Em)back at yes ter day, and I’m O (Bm)K. Mm, I’m O (Bm)K.
