Brought Up That Way
C Am
Emily comes home from school
F G
Grabs on to her daddy's hand
C Am
He says baby girl what's wrong with you
F G
She says, please don't make me go back there again
C Am G
She says I wish there was some way to make them stop it
C Am G F
So he drives down to that principals office
C
He says I didn't bring her up
Am
So they could cut her down
G
I didn't bring her here
F
So they could shut her out
C
I live my whole damn life
Am
To see that little girl smile
G F G
So why are tears pouring down that sweet face?
C
She wasn't brought up that way
C Am
Emily's home late again
F G
He sees that boy drive away
C Am
But somethings different this time
F G
She hasn't got much to say
C Am F G
She said he tried but there just some things I won't do
C Am F G
And through the tears she says I couldn't do that to you
C
and he says,
C
I didn't bring you up
Am
So he could wear you down
G
Take that innocent heart
F
And turn it inside out
C Am
I live my whole damn life to see my little girl smile
G F
So don't let nobody take that away
G C
You weren't brought up that way
C Am
The phone rings on a rainy night
F G
Says it's officer Tate
C Am
He said, sir there's been an accident
F G
You better come down here right away
C Am
A drunken driver missed an over-pass
F G
And Emily, she's fading fast
C
He says,
C
God I didn't bring her up
Am
So I could watch them lay her Down
G F
Nearly killed me the day they put her mama in the ground
C Am
The only thing that kept me alive was that little girl's smile
G F
So please don't take that away
G C Am G
It won't be easy taking her today
C
She wasn't brought up that way
C
he stands over the hospital bed
F G C
and Emily opens her eyes
