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
