Oh, hey, [G] hey, just a child being a child
And she didn't do what [D] you had told her to
A _ [G] little big-eyed girl in her own world
_ [D] Maybe she embarrassed you _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ With your fist you [D] struck her down
_ _ [Em] You walked [G] away, you [D] left her screaming
_ _ [Em] _ People lift [D] their feet and step around
[A] I'm just as guilty _
[D] You _ [G] _ wouldn't treat a [D] dog like that
_ [G] You wouldn't kick it in the [D] ribs
Since you brought it out the [A] back
_ _ [G] Oh, _ _ [D] what _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ else could she do but run to you
When you walked off and left her in the [D] streets
All broken down _
_ _ [G] I can't understand the force of your hand
With the strength of a man
Would it [D] knock me off my feet? _
_ _ _ [Em] She was [D] only three
_ [Em] _ It's too late for [D] me and my apologies
[Em] I [G] _ [D] still feel guilty
For [A] what I did not do _
I should have helped [G] you
_ I [D] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [G] bet [D] you've been here [A] before
_ [Bm] _ And you swore you [A] never _ would
[E] Now look [A] into [G] your daughter's eyes
[A] Are they just a mirror of your old [G] childhood?
You wouldn't treat a [D] dog like that
_ _ [G] You wouldn't [A] kick it [G] in the [D] ribs
Since you brought it out the back
[G] You wouldn't treat a [D] dog like that
_ [G] You wouldn't kick it in the [D] ribs
Since you brought it out the back
[G] You wouldn't treat a [D] dog like that
[G] Kick it in the [D] ribs
Throw it out the _ [G] back Yeah [D] Oh
_ [A] Oh
[G] You wouldn't treat a [D] dog like that
_ [A] _ _ And all we [Bm] do is turn our backs
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
