Brought Up That Way — аккорды и текст

Capo on 5

Emily comes home from school

Grabs on to her daddy's hand

He says baby girl what's wrong with you

She says, please don't make me go back there again

She said I wish there was some way to make 'em stop it

C                      D       D -once

So he drives down to that principals office, and says

I didn't bring her up

So they could cut her down

I didn't bring her here

So they could shut her out

I live my whole damn life

To see that little girl smile

So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?

She wasn't brought up that way

Emily's home late again

He sees that boy drive away

Oh, but somethings different this time

She doesn't have too much to say

She said he tried, but there just some things I won't do

And through the tears she said I couldn't do that to you

D -once

And he said,

I didn't bring you up

So he could wear you down

Take that innocent heart

And turn it inside out

I live my whole damn life

To see my little girl smile

So don't let nobody take that away

You weren't brought up that way

G G6 C Csus2 C Csus2 D -once

The phone rings on a rainy night

Says it's Officer Tate

He said, Sir there's been an accident

You better come down here right away

A drunken driver missed an over-pass

C             Csus2        D -once

And Emily, she's fading fast, he says God

I didn't bring her up

To watch them lay her Down

Nearly killed me the day they put her mama in the ground

Only thing kept me alive was that little girl's smile

So please don't take that away

It won't be easy taking her today

She wasn't brought up that way

He stands over the hospital bed

C ....

Emily opens her eyes
