Intro: GCDGA cold night in the kitchen
CG
Saying things we both regret
CG
And you scream, you were leaving
D
And you cursed the day we met
CDG
Then a sound rose above the slamming door
~ EmC
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
G
So loud it made us stop
AmG/BCD
It was the sound of a teardrop___
Chorus:
N.C. CG
When I heard her crying
CDG
Thought she was tucked away in bed
G/F#EmC
I heard her crying
D
Wish we could take back what we said
CDG
I didn't think she was old enough to know
G/F#EmC
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so
G
When she begged you not to go
DGDG
I heard her crying
N.C. G
Well, I'd have given anything
CG
For time to erase
CG
When I turned around and saw
D
Those little tears roll down her face
CDG
Oh, my heart nearly broke in two
~ EmC
When she said, "Mommy what did I do
G
To make you and daddy mad
AmD
Oh, I'm sorry I was bad"
N.C. G
Well, I looked at you and you looked at me
CG
And we felt each other's shame
CG
Then kneeling down to hold our child
D
Said, she was not to blame
CD
"Now sometimes when we're angry
G ~ Em
And say things that aren't true
CG
But we still love each other
DG
And baby, we love you"
Chorus:
N.C. CG
And I heard her crying
CDG
Thought she was tucked away in bed
G/F#EmC
Oh, I heard her crying
D
Wish we could take back what we said
CDG
I didn't think she was old enough to know
G/F#EmC
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so
G
When she begged you not to go
DGDG
I heard her crying
