I Heard Her Cryin Teclado

	  



Intro: G    C  D  G 


A cold night in the kitchen 
       C                G 
Saying things we both regret 
    C                    G 
And you scream, you were leaving 
                          D 
And you cursed the day we met 


                   C        D        G 
Then a sound rose above the slamming door 
    ~      Em             C 
And broken dishes thrown around the floor 
                   G 
So loud it made us stop 
           Am    G/B  C   D 
It was the sound of a teardrop___ 


 
N.C.             C  G 
When I heard her crying 
                C       D      G 
Thought she was tucked away in bed 
  G/F#      Em      C 
I heard her crying 
                                D 
Wish we could take back what we said 
                       C    D        G 
I didn't think she was old enough to know 
G/F#        Em                 C 
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so 
                           G 
When she begged you not to go 
            D  G        D G 
I heard her crying 


N.C.  G 
Well, I'd have given anything 
    C        G 
For time to erase 
       C                 G 
When I turned around and saw 
                                 D 
Those little tears roll down her face 


             C      D        G 
Oh, my heart nearly broke in two 
     ~          Em         C 
When she said, "Mommy what did I do 
                      G 
To make you and daddy mad 
        Am           D 
Oh, I'm sorry I was bad" 


N.C.    G 
Well, I looked at you and you looked at me 
       C                 G 
And we felt each other's shame 
     C                G 
Then kneeling down to hold our child 
                     D 
Said, she was not to blame 

     C                    D   
"Now sometimes when we're angry 
        G           ~      Em  
And say things that aren't true 
    C                  G 
But we still love each other  
    D             G 
And baby, we love you" 


 
N.C.            C  G 
And I heard her crying 
                C       D      G 
Thought she was tucked away in bed 
      G/F#      Em      C 
Oh, I heard her crying 
                                D 
Wish we could take back what we said 
                       C    D        G 
I didn't think she was old enough to know 
G/F#        Em                 C 
Oh lord, we must have hurt her so 
                           G 
When she begged you not to go 
            D  G       D G 
I heard her crying
