The Passion

Intro

Em   Am   G    Em  C  G (2x)

Em            Am                 
The fear of a daughter runs high
   G

Em            C                  
In the the mind of a father to be
      G

Em            Am                 
For something is growing inside
   G

Em            C                  
But we don't talk about it, do we
      G


Em            Am                 
In the long empty passionless 
   G
night
Em            C                  
Many times to herself she has 
      G
prayed
Em            Am                 
That the baby will love her much 
   G
more
Em            C                  
Than the big boy who stole her 
      G
away

grown man a long time to learn
C        C/B        C        
Just what it would take a

child a night to learn

It pains her to know that some

things will never be right

If the baby is just someone else

to take sides in the fight


Em            Am                 
Harsh words between bride and

groom
Em            C                  
The distance is greater each day

And she knits her life away
      G

A long time ago she saw visions on
 Cm                        G
 the stairs
Bm             Em                 
And when she felt dizzy her mother
 Cm                        D
 was always there

The home help is no help at all

Em            C                  
I have not committed a crime
