C      G  
She said that time is unfair to a woman her age 
                        C        G  
And now that wisdom has come everything else fades 
F5                   C                      C    G    C    G  
She said she realizes she's seen her better days 
                        C       G  
She said she can't look back to her days of youth 
                        C       G  
What she thought were lies, she later found was truth 
F5                      C                        C   G    C    G  
She said her daddy had dreams but he drank them away 
F5                  C                            C   G    C    G  
And her mother's to blame for the way she is today 
 
 
G5                 C5 
Life's river shall rise,           (she said) 
And only the strong shall survive, (she said) 
But I'm feeling quite weak,        (she said) 
Will you comfort and forgive me,   (she said) 
 
She said she's still searching for salvation's light 
Yet she wishes all day and she prays all night 
 
 
She said she won't speak of love cause love she's never known 
She said it's moments like these she hates to be alone
