Intro 1
(C major) (B minor) (D major)
Verse 1
Stepchild, (C major)
you (B flat major) have outlived your time (F major)
You (D minor) represent em (C major) barrassment
and fail (B flat major) ure (A major)
And the father (G major) who must (C major) be killed (G major) (C major)
Is the blight (G major) upon (C major) your blighted (F major) life (D major)
And his (G major) might is his (C major) legal right (G major) (C major)
(G major) To (C major) ground you down (F major) (D major)
Stepchild, (D minor) (C major) with (B flat major) every
petty swipe (F major)
You just (D minor) might find you're
(C major) fighting for (E major) your (C major) life (B flat major) (A major)
And the father (G major) who must (C major) be killed (G major) (C major)
Is a step (G major) farther (C major) but
non (F major) etheless (D major)
The way (G major) he chews (C major) his food (G major) (C major)
(G major) Rips right through (C major) your senses (F major) (D major)
Stepchild, (C major) there's a knife (B flat major) in
a drawer in a (F major) room downstairs
And you, (D minor) you (C major) know what
you must do (B flat major) (A major)
So the stepchild (E major) ran with a
knife to his sleeping frame (A major)
And slams it in his arms, his leg (D major) s,
his face, his neck and says
There's a law (A minor) against me now
And the father (G major) who (C major) must be killed (G major) (C major)
With his (G major) dying breath, (C major) he grabs (F major) her (D major) hand
And he (G major) looks into (C major) her eyes (G major) (C major)
(G major) He says "I'm sorry" (C major) and he (F major) dies (D major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) (F major) (D major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (F major) (D major)
Stepchild, (D minor) (E major) (C major) (B flat major) I release (F major) you
With this (D minor) broken voice I
beseech (C major) you (B flat major) (A major)
Why are lives (E major) so short?
The stepchild thought half
(A major) pointing to the sky
No one to warn (D major) me
No hand to touch me
And no Bible- (A minor) belters to mess with me
Mama don't miss (E major) me
Mama don't miss me
This death will (A major) complete me
"But where I go (D major) there will
be no one to meet me
I know there will (A minor) be no one to meet me"
But still the step- (E major) child press
the knife to her throat
Half (A major) pointing to the sky
Just as (A minor) mother- (D major) less birds fly high
Then so shall I (D major) (E major)
So shall (A major) I
So shall I (A major) (D major)
So shall I
