This is my first time attempting this, and I've been practicing the guitar for less than a year and I didn't
have music lessons at school so there are probably a few mistakes or it might be completely wrong but I tried
and that's what matters, because I'll get better at it eventually (right? xB7) so if it's completely wrong or
there are a few mistakes I'd appreciate it if you told me what was wrong with it so I can improve, or you
could make your own version, because honestly I just want to learn the song and I cant find the chords for it
so here xD I hope it's ok!
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 6

[Verses]
[E] [C] [G]
Miss Maggie was way too young to understand,
[B7] [E]
why she got thrown into someone else's hands,
[C] [G] [B7]
why she woke up to strange men,
[E] [C]
they tore her to pieces
[G]
and she couldn't comprehend,
[B7]
why she was locked up in a basement,
[E]
filled with men.
[C]
Should've gone to school,
[G] [B7]
instead she did them.
[E]
Don't touch me,
[C]
I'm fragile,
[G] [B7]
I'm bitter in my heart.
[E]
Mama sold me,
[C]
for candy,
[G] [B7]
and I was ruined from the start.
[E] [C]
Why'd you have to sell me to those mean old men?
[G]
They cut me up in places
[B7]
I don't even understand.
[E]
It's normalcy to me but,
[C]
how will my friends understand?
[G]
I'm five years old,
[B7] [E] [C] [G] [B7]
sleepin' with a million men
[E] [C] [G]
All grown up and her body has decayed,
[B7] [E] [C]
all those promiscuous games she had to play,
[G] [B7]
she skipped the jungle, jungle-gym phase.
[E] [C] [G]
She's tryin' to look at things in a bright way,
[B7] [E]
sees the light peekin' through the end of the hallway,
[C] [G] [B7]
No, She's tryin' tryin' tryin' to escape
[E]
I'm runnin'
[C]
full force dear
[G] [B7]
but it's hard when you're bones.
[E] [C]
I'm weak kneed but I'm flyin'
[G] [B7]
out of this hell hole.
[E] [C]
Why'd you have to sell me to those mean old men?
[G]
They cut me up in places
[B7]
I don't even understand.
[E]
It's normalcy to me but
[C]
how will my friends understand?
[G]
I'm ten years old,
[B7] [E] [C] [G] [B7]
runnin' from a million men
[E] [C] [G] [B7]
A million men
[E] [C] [G] [B7]
Finally, the light is comin' close,
[E] [C]
no turning back,
[G] [B7]
run full force.
[E] [C] [G] [B7]
Angels swoop down and grab me,
[E] [C]
and now I'm safe away,
[G] [B7]
from the million men who raised me.
[E] [C]
Why'd you have to sell me to those mean old men?
[G]
They cut me up in places
[B7]
I don't even understand.
[E]
It's normalcy to me but,
[C]
how will my boyfriend understand?
[G]
I'm seventeen,
[B7]
with a history,
[E]
of a million men
