Am
Four years old with my

            F
back to the door

Am
All I could hear

               F
was the family war

     Am
Your selfish hands

            G    F
always expecting more

Am
Am I your child or

            G   F
just a charity award
[Refrain]
           Am
You have a hollowed out heart

         F
But it's heavy in your chest

  Dm
I try so hard to fight it

C
But it's hopeless

Am      F       Dm
hopeless You're hopeless
[Chorus 1]

          Am
It's been five years since

             F
we've spoken last

        Am
And you can't take back

              F
what we never had oh

           Am
I can be manipulated

G              F
only so many times

               Am
Before even “I love you”

                       F
starts to sound like a lie
[Refrain]
           Am
You have a hollowed out heart

         F
But it's heavy in your chest

I try so hard to fight it

[Bridge]
Am
Don't you remember

              C
I'm your baby girl

E/G#
How could you push me

            C
out of your world

G
Lied to your flesh
and your blood
         D
Put your hands on the ones
that you swore you loved
Am
Don't you remember
I'm your baby girl
E/G#
How could you throw me
right out of your world
   G
So young when the pain had begun

       D
Now forever afraid of being loved
[Chorus 3]

the love of a daughter
