Okay, this is the way to play this song without tuning down. It is done true to form. It starts after the
lead part. All chords will be barre except those notated.
C#2 F# C#2 F#
C#2 F#
It's the way he looks at you that says to me this isn't over
C#2 F#
From the outside looking in you see there's nothing sacred here, nothing sacred
G#sus4 G#
You can bend but you can't break
(Second verse, same as the first:)
For the reasons out of our control, you try to make it roll like a dice away
But you say that you're all empowered here. This is obviously not clear enough to me
You can bend but you can't break, you can't break
F# G# A#m G#
Hey little girl Keep dancing Hey little girl alone
F# G# B2
Cause there's not enough time in your day to keep you here
F# G# B2
A2 C#2
(not barre)
Soldier's daughter did your daddy, did your daddy hurt you? Did he make you feel bad
A2 G#sus4
(not barre)
Did he poison your views with the water he was raised on
G#sus4(con't) G#
Oh your father's son says hang on, hang on
F# G# A#m G# F#
Hey little girl keep dancing hey little girl keep dancing alone
G# A#m G#
Cause there's not enough time in your life to stay here yeah
F#G# F#
B#
C#2 F#
So over the hills he'd climb
C#2 F#
Just to see her there in time
Just to watch the sun shine through her dress, sweet soldier's daughter, sweet soldier's daughter
G# C#2
MMMMMMMMMM
