Caroline Herring - Paper Gown
INTRO: Am G Am
Small town Cstars shine Gbright for a Amday
The moon Clights up a Gwatery Amgrave G
Woods move in the Cnight time Gbreeze
That Clifts from the E7lake through the Amtrees
On the Cnight that deGfined my Amname
FantaCsy or Gmonster, you Amsay G
Watched my boys ride the Cincline Gdown
CAll for a E7paper Amgown C
CHORUS:
Long ago I Gused to be C
A little girl on my Fdaddy's knee C
Dreams lie like Gdiamond rings
AmBabies and Epretty Amthings C G Am
I watched my Ccar sink GsilentAmly
My lover's Csweatshirt Gwrapped aAmround me G
On a black man, I Cblamed the Gcrime
With Cmoans and E7screams and Amcries
Then I Cwaited for Ghim to Amcall
My ready-made Cfamily Ggone after Amall G
While the world mourned an CaliGbi
CMy hopes beE7gan to Amdie C
CHORUS:
Long ago I Gused to be C
A little girl on my Fdaddy's knee C
Dreams lie like Gdiamond rings
AmBabies and Epretty Amthings C G Am

They're with Jesus, Clooking Gdown
At Cme in this E7paper Amgown C
