G She never really had a chance D On that fateful moonlit night Em9 Sacrificed without a fight C9 A victim of her circumstance
G Now that I've become aware D And I've exposed this tragedi Em9 A sadness grows inside of me C9 It all seems so unfair Em D I'm learning all about my life G By looking through her eyes (solo) G D Em9 C9
G Just beyond the churchyard gates D Where the grass is overgrown Em9 I saw the writing on her stone C9 I felt like I would suffocate
G In loving memory of our child D So innocent, eyes open wide Em9 I felt so empty as I cried C9 Like part of me had died
Em D I'm learning all about my life Am By looking through her eyes
And as her image C Wandered through my head G I wept just like a baby D As I lay awake in bed
Am And I know what it's like C To lose someone you love Em D And this felt just the same
G She wasn't given any choice D Desperation stole her voice Em9 I've been given so much more in life C9 I've got a son, I've got a wife G I had to suffer one last time D To grieve for her and say goodbye Em9 Relive the anguish of my past C9 To find out who I was at last
Em D The door has opened wide C I'm turning with the tide Am G D Em9 C9 Looking through her eyes. G D Em9 C9
