Rick Springfield - Beautiful Prize
Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de
[Intro]
B F# C#m E
B F# C#m E
[Verse]
B F# C#m
The father giveth, and the father taketh away,
E B
Johanna prays in her bed,
F# C#m
He drinks his beer to the TV chatter,
E
thinks dark thoughts in his head.
B F#
When the house that he keeps with his hard won pay,
C#m E
is finally asleep after his brutal day.
F# B
He turns his eyes on his beautiful prize.
[Chorus]
E B E/G# B
Johanna watches her door open just a crack,
E B E/G# B
And a hand that once held her runs down the length of her back,
F# E
Her fallen angel lies down on her bed
B F# E
So much confusion in her beautiful head,
F# B F# C#m E
Johanna closes her eyes.
[Verse 2]
B F# C#m
In a house full of secrets the truth doesn't matter,
E B F#
Johanna buries her shame and dreams of redemption
C#m E
They just scatter, she grows numb to the pain
B F#
She can't remember how it was before
C#m E
She doesn't know who she is anymore
F# B
She's in disguise as his beautiful prize.
