Topic: Jennifer

I was a twitter friend  of Jennifer's who had suffered horrendous
Sexual abuse in Rotherham.   I wrote her this song and was going
to post it to her when I finished it, but I got banned from twitter.

Jennifer

Verse 1
C                                                   Em                       Am
Where do you go when there’s nowhere left to go?
C                             Dm                C             G       
When your life is despair and nobody cares for you.
C                                              Em                          Am
You want to run but there’s nowhere you can hide.
C                   Dm                    C                            G       
Nowhere is safe from the shame and there hate.

Chorus
Am
Close your eyes
                   Dm7
Dig down deep inside
         Fmaj7      G6                   G              Am
And rise up    like a phoenix from the flame
Am                         Dm7
Don’t give up, go live your life
         Fmaj7                   G               Am
And never let no one hurt you again

Verse 2
C                                                        Em                         Am
I know there are times when you feel you can’t go on.
C                             Dm                C         G       
The stories you share are so hard to bare for you.
C                                       Em                            Am
know you give voice to those who cannot speak.
C                                 Dm    C                     G       
Who still hide their face Jen you show them the way. 
   
Chorus

Solo
C  Em Am C Dm C G
C  Em Am C Dm C G   

Chorus to fade.

Re: Jennifer

it's great the way you support and give hope to this person. the words are  indicative of the kind person you are. will we hear the recorded version?     

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Nice words for a friend - sometimes it has a huge impact - hope so in this case.

Well done !!

Re: Jennifer

Thanks for commenting peatle,  where backing is consurned I'm stuck with certain sounds so try to be creative but I need to get a more up to date workstation, but not that rich but who know what the future holds.
