INTRO
| D | F/D | G/D | D | C/D |


VERSE 1
  D
Today I stumbled from my bed
     F#
With thunder crashing in my head
       G
And my pillow still wet
                  | D | C/D |
From last night's tears
    D
And as I think of giving up
  F#
A voice inside my coffee-cup
     G
Kept crying out
              | C | A |
Ringing in my ears

VERSE 2
D
Why are children always first
   F#
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
     G
It's cruel but somehow
                 | D | C/D |
It just don't seem right
       D
'Cause ev'ry time I cry I know
   F#
It hurts my little children so
      G
And I wonder 
                    | C | A |
Will it be the same tonight
