Caroline Herring - Paper Gown
INTRO: Am G Am
C G Am
Small town stars shine bright for a day
C G Am G
The moon lights up a watery grave
C G
Woods move in the night time breeze
C E7 Am
That lifts from the lake through the trees
C G Am
On the night that defined my name
C G Am G
Fantasy or monster, you say
C G
Watched my boys ride the incline down
C E7 Am C
All for a paper gown
CHORUS:
G C
Long ago I used to be
F C
A little girl on my daddy's knee
G
Dreams lie like diamond rings
Am E Am C G Am
Babies and pretty things
C G Am
I watched my car sink silently
C G Am G
My lover's sweatshirt wrapped around me
C G
On a black man, I blamed the crime
C E7 Am
With moans and screams and cries
C G Am
Then I waited for him to call
C G Am G
My ready-made family gone after all
C G
While the world mourned an alibi
C E7 Am C
My hopes began to die
CHORUS:
G C
Long ago I used to be
F C
A little girl on my daddy's knee
G
Dreams lie like diamond rings
