Intro: F, C, Bb
When she was yo[Dm]ung,
She was living the d[Bb]ream,
Worries are g[F]one,
Nothing was wrong at all or [C]so it seemed,
Reality s[Dm]tung,
The whiskey bottle wa[Bb]s dry,
Daddy would sc[F]ream,
Cause he is diseased and haunted[C] all the time,
Big girls don't c[Dm---F]ry
Big girls don't c[Dm---F]ry
It goes [Dm]on til somet[Bb]hing happens,
You go[F]tta go and fa[C]ce it today,
When you're g[Dm]one nothing [Bb]matters,
You gott[F]a stop running away[C] asking "So wh[Bb]at do you do?"
[C]You gotta break through,
M[F]ake it o[C]n your o[Bb]wn,
It goes[Dm] on but I[Bb] thought you should know[C],
You're not al[F]one[C][Bb]
When he was young,
He was living the dream,
He has it all,
Nothing can stop him now or so it seemed,
Reality stung,
Lost control of the wheel,
It all went so fast can't remember the crash,
This all seemed so unreal,
Tough guys still try
(chorus)
There's a h[Dm]and to hold,
You're not alone,
This [Bb]pain gets old like,
cracks in stone,
Just ta[F]king back control,
Ta[C]king back control
It goes on til something happens,
You gotta go and face it today
(chorus)
