Verse 1:
D5                                                    A5
Well, it was dress up day, had on my momma's favorite gown.
              Cmaj7                                              G6
Complete with hat and make-up, high-heeled shoes, I was ready to paint the town.
                    D5 
Images of being grown-up, they dance through my head
     A5
As I twirl around, I rip a hole in momma's dress.
      Cmaj7                                                       G6
And I sat down in horror to look at what I had done and the tears role down.


Chrous (A):
            D5
And I would give anything just to take back that night,
            A5
And I would give anything to undo the wrong to right.
            Cmaj7                                          G6
And I would give anything, give anything just to make it alright.
                     D5
(Just to make it alright)

Verse 2:
D5
Well, I had never felt a feelin' like this before,
        A5
Now I'm 17 a woman, no longer a little girl.
           Cmaj7
He told me he loved me, I swore I saw it in his eyes.
     G6                                   (Pause)
So I gave him my heart, I gave it to a bunch of lies.
        D5
Now I'm sitting here alone on my bedroom floor
        A5
And I'm cryin' out for someone, someone to find that little girl.
    Cmaj7                                        G6         (Riff)
And hold her tight tell her everything's gonna be alright.


Chrous (B):
            D5
And I would give anything to patch up the holes.
            A5
And I would give anything to make sure that no one ever knows.
            Cmaj7                                                G6
And I would give anything, give anything (just) to take back the pain of yesterday
                D5                 A5        Cmaj7          (Riff)
The pain of yesterday, pain of yesterday, oh yea, oh yea


Verse 3:
             D5
Now it's the day before Easter, my first year away from home.
            A5
Mom and dad sit me down and tell me that somethin's wrong.
        Cmaj7
No more family together or death do us part,
         G6                                        (Pause)
It's all over now forever and they ripped out my heart.
        D5
Now I'm sitting here alone in a puddle of my tears,
         A5
At the reality of all those forgotten years.
    Cmaj7
This cut runs so deep, my heart wants to die,
       G6                                      (Pause, pull off A-string in 2nd fred)
all because of the sin that was committed that night.


Chorus (A+B):
            D5
And I would give anything just to take back that night,
            A5
And I would give anything to undo the wrong to right. 
            Cmaj7                                        A5  (Riff)
And I would give anything, give anything just to make it alright.
            D5
And I would give anything to patch up the holes.
            A5
And I would give anything to make sure that no one ever knows.
            Cmaj7                                              A5  
And I would give anything, give anything just to take back the pain of yesterday
  (Riff)            D5
Coz it still hearts me
             A5        Cmaj7             A5 (Riff)
The pain of yesterday, uh yea
