Demi Lovato - For the Love of a Daughter: chords

Bm
Four years old with my
            G
back to the door
Bm
All I could hear
                G
was the family war
     Bm
Your selfish hands
          A       G
always expecting more
  Bm
Am I your child or
         A       G
just a charity award?

           Bm
You have a hollowed out heart
          G
But it’s heavy in your chest
   Em
I try so hard to fight it
 D
But it’s hopeless
Bm      G       Em
hopeless You’re hopeless

Chorus:
G        Bm
Oh father  please father
D
I’d love to leave you alone
G
but I can’t let you go
G        Bm
Oh father  please father
D               G
Put the bottle down for
the love of a daughter

It's been five years since we've spoken last
And you can't take back what we never had
Oh, well, I can be manipulated only so many times
Before even "I love you" starts to sound like a lie

You have a hollowed out heart,
but it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it, but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless

Chorus:
Oh, father
Please, father
I'd love to leave you alone,
but I can't let you go
Oh, father
Please, father
Put the bottle down for
the love of a daughter

Bm
Don’t you remember
               D
I’m your baby girl?
F#/A#
How could you push me
out of your world?
F/A
Lied to your flesh
and your blood
         E/G#
Put your hands on the ones
that you swore you loved
Bm
Don’t you remember
I’m your baby girl?
F#/A#
How could you throw me
right out of your world?
   F/A
So young when the pain had begun
       E/G#
Now forever afraid of being loved

Chorus:
Oh, father
Please, father
I'd love to leave you alone,
but I can't let you go
Oh, father
Please, father

Oh, father
Please, father
Put the bottle down for
the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter
