D A
Its got a ten foot rusted steeple, scarred by mother nature
Bm G
And a weathered front door about to lose its war with father time
D A
And that mud hole in the driveway, it gets deeper every Sunday
Bm A G
The "W" is missing from its worn out welcome sign
Em D/F# G D D/F# G
The grass out in the graveyard ain't been cut since late July
[Chorus 1]
D A
But on the inside, well now thats a different story
Bm A G A
Their singing glory glory, never been so full of life
D A
A ray of hope shines through that broken stained glass window
Bm A G
And its amazing how it hits those heavy hearts at the right time
Em D/F# G A G
when its dark out, even the blind can see the light on the inside
[Verse 2]
D A
Well, she dresses like a Barbie and she cusses like a sailor
Bm G
She's earned that piece of sidewalk by the avenue off of Main
D A
She don't leave that corner for nothing but top dollar
Bm A G
Cause nothing but top dollar keeps that habit in her veins,
Em D/F# G D D/F# G
She blends in with the other trash you'll see if you drive by
[Chorus 2]
D A
But on the inside, well now thats a different story
Bm A G A
She's just a girl from Burns, Wyoming, that ran away one night
D A
And when she ain't high, how she misses mom and daddy
Bm A G
She wants them there so badly to make everything alright
Em D/F# G A G
Never been more lost or scared in her young life on the inside
[Bridge]
Bm G D
Well that girl finally found her way back home
Bm G D
Where her family showers with love
Bm A G
And she found her own way-down to that ol church
G A
You know the one, sure could use some fixin up
[Chorus 3]
D A
But on the inside, well now thats a different story
Bm A G A
Their singing glory glory, never been so full of life
D A
A ray of hope shines through that broken stained glass window
Bm A G
And its amazing how it hits those heavy hearts at the right time
Em D/F# G A G
when its dark out, even the blind can see the light on the inside
