## NOTE: ~ = Bass Walk-Down from G to Em ## INTRO: G C D G A cold night in the kitchen
       C                G
Saying things we both regret

    C                    G
And you scream, you were leaving

                          D
And you cursed the day we met

                   C        D        G
Then a sound rose above the slamming door

    ~      Em             C
And broken dishes thrown around the floor

                   G
So loud it made us stop

           Am    G/B  C   D
It was the sound of a teardrop___
CHORUS:
N.C.             C  G
When I heard her crying

                C       D      G
Thought she was tucked away in bed

  G/F#      Em      C
I heard her crying

                                D
Wish we could take back what we said

                       C    D        G
I didn't think she was old enough to know

G/F#        Em                 C
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so

                           G
When she begged you not to go

            D  G        D G
I heard her crying

N.C.  G
Well, I'd have given anything

    C        G
For time to erase

       C                 G
When I turned around and saw

                                 D
Those little tears roll down her face

             C      D        G
Oh, my heart nearly broke in two

     ~          Em         C
When she said, "Mommy what did I do

                      G
To make you and daddy mad

        Am           D
Oh, I'm sorry I was bad"

N.C.    G
Well, I looked at you and you looked at me

       C                 G
And we felt each other's shame

     C                G
Then kneeling down to hold our child

                     D
Said, she was not to blame

     C                    D  
"Now sometimes when we're angry

        G           ~      Em 
And say things that aren't true

    C                  G
But we still love each other 

    D             G
And baby, we love you"
CHORUS:
N.C.            C  G
And I heard her crying

                C       D      G
Thought she was tucked away in bed

      G/F#      Em      C
Oh, I heard her crying

                                D
Wish we could take back what we said

                       C    D        G
I didn't think she was old enough to know

G/F#        Em                 C
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so

                           G
When she begged you not to go

            D  G       D G
I heard her crying
