[Verse 1]
Em Bm She hears his heavy breathing in the dark Em C His footsteps coming closer down the hall Am Bm She's so ashamed, she's daddy's secret love Am Bm E Em She wants to cry, she wants to die, but he can't get enough
[Verse 2]
Em The bruises on his face will go away Em C Mom keeps him home from school till they fade Am Bm She's sorry he was born and tells him so Am Bm Em He takes it in, he hangs his chin, he ducks another blow
[Chorus]
D Did God overlook it Em What ought have been written Am Bm The eleventh commandment Em Honor thy children
[Verse 3]
Em He cries for hours, cries and never stops Em C He shakes so hard his little cradle rocks Am Bm He'll never have the chance to be brand new Am Cm Bm Em He'll never walk, he'll never talk, he's addicted, too
[Chorus]
D Did God overlook it Em What ought have been written Am Bm The eleventh commandment Em Honor thy children
[Bridge]
C Thou shalt not kill C Thou shalt not steal Em Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain C Bm Thou shalt not cause thy children pain
[Outro]
D God does not overlook it Em What ought have been written Am C Bm The eleventh commandment Em Em7 Honor thy children Em Honor thy children
