[Am]Amy says [C]she's all alone
[Am]Says the world [C]doesn't even know
[F]About the pain [Am]she hides inside
[C]Says happiness is [F]just a lie
[Am]Smell the roses [C]throw them down
[F]Just whisper, don't [Am]make a sound
[C]Don't want the world [F]to know the truth
[Am]You've been broken [C]and abused, by you
[F]And Amy says
[F]I see YOU laughing at [Am]the rain that hits your face
[C]With your arms stretched [F]open soaking in the love
[C]In a world I find [F]so hard YOU find so beautiful
[F]There's a hope in [Am]you deep inside for me
[Am]The colors [G]of her mind
[F]Bleed into [A] meach other
[G]And as the [F]morning melts the night
[Am]And the [G]stars enchant another
[F]While her eyes [Am]are still held shut
[G]She can hear [F]you breathing softly
[Am]Your words echo [C]in her mind
[F]And your [Am]words are clear
[C]And she knows [F]that you are here
[F]You [Am]are here
[F]I see her laughing at [Am]the rain that hits her face
[C]With her arms stretched [F]open soaking in the love
[C]In a world she found [F]so hard she finds so beautiful
[F]There's a hope in [Am]her deep inside from you
[F]I see her laughing at [Am]the rain that hits her face
[C]With her arms stretched [F]open soaking in the love
[C]In a world she found [F]so hard she finds so beautiful
[F]There's a hope in [Am]her deep inside from you
