Caroline Herring - Paper Gown
INTRO: Am G Am
C G Am
Small town stars shine bright for a day
C G Am G
The moon lights up a watery grave
C G
Woods move in the night time breeze
C E7 Am
That lifts from the lake through the trees
C G Am
On the night that defined my name
C G Am G
Fantasy or monster, you say
C G
Watched my boys ride the incline down
C E7 Am C
All for a paper gown
CHORUS:
G C
Long ago I used to be
F C
A little girl on my daddy's knee
G
Dreams lie like diamond rings
Am E Am C G Am
Babies and pretty things
C G Am
I watched my car sink silently
C G Am G
My lover's sweatshirt wrapped around me
C G
On a black man, I blamed the crime
C E7 Am
With moans and screams and cries
C G Am
Then I waited for him to call
C G Am G
My ready-made family gone after all
C G
While the world mourned an alibi
C E7 Am C
My hopes began to die
CHORUS:
G C
Long ago I used to be
F C
A little girl on my daddy's knee
G
Dreams lie like diamond rings
Am E Am C G Am
Babies and pretty things
BRIDGE:
F Am
Day by day
G Am
All the promises faded away
F C
No one but me
Dm E7 Am
Controls my destiny___
INSTRUMENTAL: C G Am C G Am C G Am G Am
C G Am
The sheriff sat me down to pray
C G Am G
At the First Baptist Church on the ninth day
C G
“Susan, make your conscience clean”
C E7 Am
“Sheriff, I've done a terrible thing”
C G Am
I confessed that, for love's sake
C G Am G
I drowned my children in John D. Long Lake
C G
They're with Jesus, looking down
C E7 Am C
At me in this paper gown
CHORUS:
G C
Long ago I used to be
F C
A little girl on my daddy's knee
G
Dreams lie like diamond rings
Am E Am C
Babies and pretty things

Long ago I used to be

A little girl with dreams I believed

Dreams lie like diamond rings
