VERSE 1: Guitar 1
Am                       G
My baby's got a heart of stone
          C           D          Am
Can't you people just leave her alone
                         G        C
She never did nothing to hurt you
        D          Am
So just leave her alone
                       G
The motion of her tiny hands
        C             D       Am
And the quiver of her bones below
                         G
Are the signs of a girl alone
             C              D       C
And tell you everything you need to know

CHORUS:
C                     D
I can't explain it, I feel it often
                     Am 
Every time I see her face

        C                      D
But the way you treat her, it fills me with rage
                             E     X  X X
And I want to tear apart the place

RIFF 1

VERSE 2:
Am                          G
You try to tell her what to do
    C               D        Am
And all she does is stare at you
                              G
Her stare is louder than your voice
        C             D      C
Because truth doesn't make a noise
                         D
No, truth doesn't make a noise
                     E     X  X X
Truth doesn't make a noise

BREAK

CHORUS:
C N.C.                D N.C.
I can't explain it, I feel it often
                     Am   PIANO RIFF 1  C
Every time I see her face
N.C.
But the way you treat her, it fills me with rage
                             E     X  X X
And I want to tear apart the place

BREAK: Played 4x (with some piano rhythm changes)

Am
