Chords for Dierks Bentley - Woman, Amen (Fan Story)

_ I never really wanted to have a kid.
It's probably my biggest fear.
And when Sydney was born, I almost lost her.
The doctors had to pull her from me to save her.
So I often feel that she was what God thought I needed.
She's amazing.
Sydney just really, really loves to help people.
She loves to volunteer.
She has such a heart to help the homeless.
And I had the opportunity to do more for my daughter.
And so we moved from a very small town to a very large town.
I left a job in a place I'd lived basically my entire life,
my safety net, to make sure that what was best for her
was what we did.
And then everything that I thought we had left behind
came flooding back when Sydney was bullied.
_ _ It was, it's really tough.
[C] _ But Sydney took [Fm] bullying and she turned [C] it around.
She used it to motivate [G] herself to do more for [C] others.
I'm pretty confident that [F] Sydney's gonna make a [C] difference.
