G            A                  
If there's a God, oh, could You hear
Bm
 Him?

Was he screaming out in vain?

Did You even know his name?

Said a prayer before every meal.
D
So how come Father was so bad?
A
She couldn't even call him Dad.

He made her live her life in pain,
G
Took her trust, made her insane.
D
Where were You when he broke her 
down?
A
Did You even hear a sound?

I wonder when You'll take us 
Gm F#m
home.
