Chords for Molly Kate Kestner - His Daughter (Studio Version)

_ _ _ _ Everything's gonna be alright
She whispers [Bbm] to herself _
She was only six [Abm] years old that night
As she hid behind [B] that shelf
Cause daddy had a little [Gb] too much to drink
And mama didn't want her [Bbm] to feel the pain
_ _ She [B] fell, _ but she still felt the pain
_ Well, ten [Gb] years they came and went
_ _ And [Bbm] dad was gone
So she looked for [Abm] love in other men
And tried to [B] act strong
_ _ Oh, [Gb] _ broken hearts and scars
In [Bbm] only places she could see
_ [Abm] Cause she just wanted
She just wanted [B] to feel _ something
_ [Gb] And as she sat there on her bed
[Bbm] Thinking about what those girls [Abm] said
Tears streamed from her eyes She [B] _ cried
_ _ If there's [Gb] a girl _ out there
[Bbm] Please hear my prayer
_ [Abm] I'm lost and I'm [B] scared
And I got nowhere _ to _ [Gb] go
I've come a long, long [Bbm] way _
But I'm not sure I [Abm] can make it much _ farther
_ [B] _ _ _
_ So if [Gb] you're listening
_ [Bbm] _ _ Could [Abm] you give a helping [B] hand
To [Gb] your daughter?
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ Well, her path started to change
[Bbm] She reached out and grabbed God's grace
[Abm] And finally she saw a [B] light _
_ Until that night where [Gb] she decided
One drink was alright
[Bbm] And one thing led to another
_ [Abm] Well, next thing you know
Nine months go by, [B] _ she's a mother
_ _ _ _ [Gb] And as she laid there in the bed
[Bbm] _ Stroking that small angel's head
[Abm] Tears streamed from her eyes She [B] cried _
_ If there's [Gb] a girl _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ out there
Please hear my prayer
_ [Abm] I'm lost and I'm [B] _ scared
And I got _ _ _ [Dbm] nowhere to [Gb] go
I've come a long, _ _ [Bbm] _ long way
But I'm not sure I [Abm] can be the best mother
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ So if you're listening
_ [Bbm] _ _ Could [Abm] you give a helping [B] _ hand
To [Gb] your daughter? _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ Well, that baby grew _ into a boy
_ [Abm] Who _ _ became [B] her _ pride _ and joy
_ [Gb] He loved her like no man could
And her heart felt peace
Cause she finally _ [Abm] understood _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ God's love
_ _ _ [Gb] So as she lay there in that bed
[Bbm] _ Ninety-nine years old
[Abm] She grabbed her son's hand and said
[B] There's something you must know _ _ _ _
_ _ There is [Gb] a God out there
Who [Bbm] heard _
_ _ _ _ [Abm] I was lost and [B] afraid
And I had nowhere to _ _ [Gb] go _
I had no [Bbm] clue _
What _ to [Abm] do
And then he sent me [B] _ you
_ So if you're [Gb] lost and afraid
And you [Bbm] feel so alone
_ Don't [B] worry, child
Cause there's a Father who will love you as His own _ _ _ _
Just like He loved [Gb] His daughter _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
_ [B] _ Like He loved [Gb] His daughter
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
