Old Man Thorn, he was good,
G
He was just misunderstood.
D
He never took nobody's life,
A
So how come his ended in strife?
Bm
They came in one gloomy night,
G
Came with the darkness, stole the light.
D
They took him out back and bashed his head.
A
One month later he was found dead.
G A Bm
Is there anybody out there?
G A F#m
Is there anybody listening?
G A Bm
If there's a God, oh, could You hear Him?
G
Was he screaming out in vain?
F#m
Did You even know his name?
Bm
Julie was a sweet little girl,
G
Said a prayer before every meal.
D
So how come Father was so bad?
A
She couldn't even call him Dad.
Bm
He made her live her life in pain,
G
Took her trust, made her insane.
D
Where were You when he broke her down?
A
Did You even hear a sound?
Gm F#m
Life is short, and life is gray.
Gm F#m
What am I living for anyway?
Gm F#m
Consequences I must pay
Gm F#m
If I don't get it right today.
Gm F#m
The world just seems so unfair.
Gm F#m
We are living in the monster's lair.
Gm F#m
I need to know You're on the throne.
Gm F#m Am Gm F#m
I wonder when You'll take us home.
