Stephanie always makes a lot of plans
F
She has decided, she has decided
       C
She is gonna leave
    Em7                   F  G/B
As soon as high school ends

C                        Em7
In a house where no one ever cares
         F
In her room in the attic, room in the attic
          C                    Em7
She wakes up to the sound of footsteps
          F
On the stairs

Chorus
F                   Em               F
If it's true what they, what they say
       Em             G
Stephanie has gone away
             Em                 F
If they're right, if they're right
      G                   C   Em F G/B C
Stephanie took off last night


II.
Stephanie lives with a mother and son
Who can no longer hide it, no longer hide
Their hate for her
Because she is daddy's favorite one
On an August night in 2OO4
At the end of the summer, end of the summer
When they enter her room
A baseball bat falls on the floor

Chorus
If it's true what they, what they say
Stephanie has gone away
If they're right, if they're right
       G                  Em G F C Em
Stephanie took off last night



Bridge
        G                F    C  Em
Do you know that Billy Joel song
          G         F       C    Em
It says only the good die young
            G       Em          F
If they're right, if they're right
       G                    C Em F C
Stephanie was killed last night


III.
Stephanie always made a lot of plans
She had decided, she had decided
She was gonna leave
As soon as high school ended
On that terrifying August night
Down by the river, down by the rever
Is where Stephanie was left after she died

Chorus
If it's true what they, what they say
Stephanie has gone away
If they're right, if they're right
       G                   Em
Stephanie was killed last night
            F
If they'r right
       G                    C Em F G C
Stephanie was killed last night


C                 Em
She never really wanted much
     F             G
She never really had a chance... [Repeat an fade]
