His Daughter Tabulatur von Molly Kate Kestner

F
Everything's gonna be alright
 C 
She whispers to herself
 Gm 
She was only 6 years old that night
 Bb 
As she hid behind that shelf
 F 
Cuz daddy had a little too much to drink
 C 
And mama didn't want her to feel
 Gm 
the pain she felt
 Bb 
But she still felt the pain
 F 
Well 10 years they came and went
 C 
And dad was gone
 Gm 
So she looked for love in other men
 Bb 
And tried to act strong.
 F
Oh broken hearts and
C
Scars in only places she could see 
 Gm
Cuz she just wanted, she just
 Bb
wanted to feel something
 F 
And as she sat there on her bed
 C 
thinkin bout what those girls said
 Gm 
tears streamed down her eyes
 Bb 
She cried
 F 
If there's a God out there
 C 
Please hear my prayer.
 Gm 
I'm lost and 
 Bb
I'm scared
 F 
and I've got no where else to go
 C 
I've come a long, 
 Gm
long way

 Bb 
But I'm not sure I can make it much farther
 F
So if you're listening, 
 C
could you give a helping 
 F
hand
 Gm
 Bb 
To your daughter.
 F 
Well her path started to change
 C 
She reached out and grabbed God's grace
 Gm
And finally, she saw a light
 Bb
Until that night where
 F 
She decided one drink was alright
 C 
and one thing led to another
 Gm 
Well next thing you know, 9 months go by
 Bb 
she's a mother.
 F 
And as she laid there in that bed
 C 
Stroking that small angel's head
 Gm 
Tears streamed down her eyes
 Bb 
She cried
 F 
If there's a God out there
 C 
Please here my prayer.
 Gm 
I'm lost and 
 Bb
I'm scared

 F 
and I've got no where else to run
 C 
I've come a long,
 Gm
long way
 
 Bb 
But I'm not sure I can be the best mother
 F
So if you're listening, 
 C
could you give a helping
 F
hand
 Gm

 Bb 
To your daughter.
 F
Well that baby 
 C
grew into a boy
 Gm

 Bb 
Who became her pride and joy
 F 
He loved her like 
 C
no man could
And her heart felt peace, 
 Gm
cuz she finally understood
 Bb 
God's love.
 F 
And as she laid there in that bed
 C 
99 years old
 Gm 
She grabbed her son's hand and said
 Bb 
There's something you must know...
 F 
There is a God up there
 C 
Who heard my prayer
 Gm 
I was lost and 
 Bb
afraid
 F 
And I had no where else
 C
to go.
I had know clue,
 Gm
what to do
 Bb 
And then He sent me you.
 F 
So if you're lost and afraid
