Nanci Griffith - If i were a child

^GSunday m^Dorning hell, it'^Cs finally come ^GWashed t^Dhese bleary eyed^C windows just to see the sun ^GAnd I ke^EMep on thinking i^At will pass some time ^CBring back the peace of ^Dmind and carry that old smile of mine

^CIf I were a chil^Gd I would cry an^EMd beg your pardon ^CIf I wer^De a begg^Gar I would hold ^EMout my h^Gand ^CIf I wer^De an angel I wou^Gld smile and say^EM you owe^G me ^CBut I am just a ^Dlady you^C never tried to ^Gunderstand

^GWhy am I^D so cold inside ^Ctoday ^GThese ho^Dme town streets ^Clook so dirty and gray ^GAnd I do^EMn't want to save^A it until the night rolls in ^CDo you feel the pain my friend? Well it'^Ds alright

^GThose ol^Dd morning after ^Cblues go a hold of me ^GI'm a Sa^Dturday night dru^Cnk with no place to drink ^GAnd I do^EMn't want^A to face the truth I see in me ^C"Ca^Duse in my mind I^C already^G going home to Satan

^CI am jus^Dt a lady^C I've tried so h^Gard to understand.
