Audrey was a girl that sat in my classroom

                 Cm#                             A
she never said a word she just sat there so furtively

  E                                   B
I never noticed her until I heard the radio

         Cm#        A
telling about the way she took her life

   E                                  B
today it's all upon the covers of the papers

                   Cm#               A
about her folks at home I guess her daddy is a drinker

     E                          B
her mummy left her when she was just a tiny child

        Cm#                   A                 B
tell my Audrey was that the first time you felt abandonment

E             B
Hold on baby don't be sorry

             Cm#          A
cause every day has it's up's and downs

E             B
Hold on baby they'll be sunshine

Cm#                   A
every life has it's stormy nights
Come to think about it there are some things I can recall about her arms they had blue spots on them I remember then thinking these thoughts to myself Is it wrong to wonder about somebody else's problems I'm not burdened with at all Hold on baby don't be sorry cause every day has it's up's and downs Hold on baby they'll be sunshine every life has it's stormy nights
   E                                              Cm#
Oh there there she lays down in the button of the river

but I will pray that someday she'll rise again
Well if you're up their I hope you can see my sorrow and the pain of guilt I never asked you how you were But one thing I can assure you after wittnessing what has been done I will open my heart to the new girl that sits next door
