Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]You came home crying[D]
from school [G]today
[Am]Walked past me try[G]ing to hide
[D]the tears there on your face
[Em]It's hard for [D]me to explain
[G]How[Am] humans fin[G]d the pleasure
of caus[D]ing people pain

[Verse 2]
But [C]sometimes there's [D]more to the story
And [Em]we don't know what's going on in
[C]That home, behin[D]d closed doors
[Em]Maybe there is something wrong
[C]So be brave, my [D]little one
[Em]I know you can be strong
[C]'Cause you are just like your mom[D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Say my [Am]name[C]
When you're hurting, darling
[G]I'll take [Am]the demon[C]s away
But you know there will
[G]come [Am]a day[C]
When I won't be there, but
[Em]I know that you'll be [D]ok[C]ay
'Cause you are my [G]blood[Am][C]
You're my blood
[G][Am][C]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Oh, I was [D]22 years old[G]
[Am]My mother told[G] me that
you learn [D]more as you go
[Em]But I've spent many [D]nights alone[G]
[Am]Do I need more[G] for me to make
[D]this house a home?

[Verse 5]
'Cause [C]sometimes there's
[D]more to the story
And [Em]they don't know what's going on
[C]My life behin[D]d closed doors
[Em]Maybe there is nothing wrong
[C]And I will keep hol[D]ding on
[Em]I know I can be strong
[C]'Cause I am just like my mom[D]

[Verse 6]
And she told [G]me, "Say my
[Am]name[C]
When you're hurting, darling
[G]I'll take the [Am]demon[C]s away
But you know there will
[G]come a [Am]day[C]
When I won't be there, but
[Em]I know that you'll be [D]ok[C]ay
'Cause you are my [Em]blood"
[C](My blood,

[Verse 8]
So [G]say [Am]my na[C]me
When you're hurting, [G]darling
