[Verse 1]
  G5She never really had a chance
  D/F#On that fateful moonlit night
  Em7Sacrificed without a fight
  Csus2A victim of her circumstance
  G5Now that I've become aware
  D/F#And I've exposed this tragedy
  Em7A sadness grows inside of me
  Csus2It all seems so unfair
[Chorus]
  EmI'm learning all about my life

G5  G/B  Em7  Csus2
[Verse 2]
  G5Just beyond the churchyard gates
  D/F#Where the grass is overgrown
  Em7I saw the writing on her stone
  Csus2I felt like I would suffocate
  G5In loving memory of our child
  D/F#So innocent, eyes open wide
  Em7I felt so empty as I cried
  Csus2Like part of me had died
[Chorus]
