Audrey

[E]Audrey was a girl that sat in my class[B]room
she never said a [C#m]word she just sat there so furti[A]vely
I [E]never noticed her until I heard the [B]radio
telling a[C#m]bout the wa[A]y she took her life
tod[E]ay it's all upon the covers of the [B]papers
about her folks at [C#m]home I guess her d[A]addy is a drinker
her m[E]ummy left her when she was [B]just a tiny child
tell my [C#m]Audrey was that the fi[A]rst time you felt [B]abandonment

[E]Hold on baby d[B]on't be sorry
cause every d[C#m]ay has it's u[A]p's and downs
[E]Hold on baby t[B]hey'll be sunshine
[C#m]every life has it's st[A]ormy nights

Come to think about it there are some things
I can recall about her arms they had blue spots on them
I remember then thinking these thoughts to myself
Is it wrong to wonder about somebody else's problems
I'm not burdened with at all

Hold on baby don't be sorry
cause every day has it's up's and downs
Hold on baby they'll be sunshine
every life has it's stormy nights

Oh [E]there there she lays down in the button of the [C#m]river
tell me what [E]crime did it take that tore this girls only willin[C#m]gnes
but I will [B]pray that someday she'll rise [A]again

Well if you're up their I hope you can see my sorrow and the pain of guilt
I never asked you how you were
But one thing I can assure you after wittnessing
what has been done I will open my heart to the new girl that sits next door

[D]Hold on baby [A]don't be sorry
cause e[Bm]very day has it's [G]up's and downs
[D]Hold on baby t[A]hey'll be sunshine
[Bm]every life has it's s[G]tormy nights

Hold on baby don't be sorry
cause every day has it's up's and downs
Hold on baby they'll be sunshine in your life
