[Intro ]

 A 
Settle down kid 
                         E 
And try and steady your nerves 
 A 
She dont care who your daddy is 
                E 
Youre wasting words 

D            A 
 I pity you kid 
           E 
I was you once 
D                 A 
Spent youth on a barstool drunk

 A 
She dont care for your sympathy 
               E 
She does just fine 
          A 
Shes got everything she needs 
                              E 
As she leads you along in line 

D              A                     E 
 They grow up quick where she comes from 
         D 
She was caught too young 
     A              E 
And taught too much 
 

 
         D       A 
Shes a drought flower 
     E 
Surrounded by a wildfire 
         D    A 
Shes a warm gun 
        E 
Aiming down off the clock tower 

          D   A 
Shes an old soul 
      E 
That nature cant control 

         D                   A 
Shes a drought flower in a wildfire

D               A                    E 
 Its one more martyr for the matinee 
       D 
Shes caught in your cross 
           A                    E 
While you drink deeper in your grave 
 

 
         D       A 
Shes a drought flower 
     E 
Surrounded by a wildfire 
         D    A 
Shes a warm gun 
        E 
Aiming down off the clock tower 

          D   A 
Shes an old soul 
      E 
That nature cant control 

         D                   A 
Shes a drought flower in a wildfire
