Tom: C
C Am
She was a saddened girl kept lots within
F G
When asked she startle and tried to grin
C Am
Always say it was nothing much
F G C
Never emotional stricken
Am
Stricken with fraught
F G
Wrapped up tight like she was caught
C Am
And when we’d pull her away
F*
They’d come out laughing
G*
And would say
C Am F G
We are the people of the lock
C Am
We suffer with the absence of
F G
All her rotting thoughts
C
So leave her
Am
Leave her to be
F G
We need her with her broken key
C Am
Still we’d try to pull her away
F*
So they ripped out her veins
G*
And she drained away
C Am F G x2
C* Am*
Years went by and she stayed all chained
F* G*
Chained by these people who relished her pain
C* Am*
Still we’d try to reach out to her
F* G* C
We were emotional sickened
Am
Sickened, distraught
F G
Tired of this filthy, rusty lock
C Am
Showed her what she could be
F* G*
And helped her pick up and mend her key
C Am F G
She faced the people of the lock
C Am
She barged through their doors and upturned all
F G
Of their pathetic plots
C
She told them
Am
Leave her to be
F G
She wasn’t alone and she could see
C Am
Her future, her family
F* G*
And very own shiny, unbroken key
C Am F G x2
C* Am*
Now she’s free healed mentally
F* G*
No more locks or scarring deeds
C* Am*
Ready for this life to be
F* G*
Surrounded by friends and family
C* Am*
And whenever she’s feeling down
F* G*
She’ll look up knowing she’s safe and sound
C* Am*
In her heart she knows that she
F* G*
Has us all within her little key
C Am F G
One day she glimpsed the people of the lock
C Am
She laughed in their faces as they choked
F G
On her happy thoughts
C
They left her
Am
Left her to be
F G
Ran away when they saw her key
C Am
And were never seen again
F G C ~
And this is how the story ends
