 gm D#
 In the glare of a neon sign
 F gm
 She laid her body down
 gm F
 A man walked in beside her
 (F) gm
 And laid his money down
 
 He said don't try to scream now
 But I want this one to hurt
 And tonight my pretty one
 I'm gonna get my money's worth
 
 She said they never listened
 She said they'd never understand
 That I don't this for pleasure
 I just do it cause I can
 
 I swear I didn't want to
 And I swear I didn't know
 That things like this could happen
 To a 17-year old
 
 Chorus:
 
 D# A# F gm
 And I've bundled up all of these fears inside
          D#         A#          F   
 And I've bottled up all of this pain
 D# A# F gm
 And no one and nothing, can take this away
       D#           A#       F                
 But I won't let it happen again - never again
 
 
 (First acoustic guitar playing riff, second one chords)
 
 In the haze of a smoky room
 He chokes that bottle down
 It's been a month since her saw her face
 Underneath the blood stained gown
 
 He thinks about that little girl
 And the one he has at home
 And wonders what if that was my little girl
 Walkin' down that road alone
 
 Maybe I'm just crazy or the devil got inside
 But either way my soul is gone, I'll end this all tonight
 The one hand throws the whiskey, and the other throws the gun
 As he cries out to the heavens
 I am not my father's son
