[Verse 1]
D
My little little girl,
C G
met a new friend just the other day,
D
on the playground at school,
C G
between the tires and the swing,
D C
but she came home,
G
with tearfilled eyes,
D C
she said to me daddy,
G
alyssa lies,
D C
well i just brushed it off at first,
C
Cause i didnt know,
G
how much my little girl had been hurt,
D C
I wasnt ready when i said,
C
you can tell me,
(Silent)
and she said
[Chorus]
D A
alyssa lies to the classroom,
G A
alyssa lies every day at school,
D A
alyssa lies to the teacher,
G A
as she tries to cover every bruse,
[Verse 2]
D
My little girl laid her head down,
C
that night to go to sleep,
G
as i stepped out of the room,
D C G
I heard her say a prayer so soft and sweet,
D C
God bless my mom and my dad,
G
and my new friend alyssa,
[Dig In] D
lord i know she needs you bad, because
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
D C
i had the worst night of sleep in years,
G D
as i thought of a way to calm her fears,
A G (i think)
I knew exactly what i had to do
[Verse 3]
D
my little girl asked me why,
C
eveybody looked so sad,
G
the lump in my throat grew bigger,
D C
with every question that she asked,
G D
until i felt the tears run down my face,
[single strum] C
And i told her that alyssa,
[single strum] G
wouldnt be at school today
because...
D A
cause she doesnt lie in the classroom,
G A
she doesnt lie anymore at school,
D A
Alyssa lies with jesus,
G A
cause theirs nothing anyone can do,
[Final Verse]
D C
tears filled my eyes,
G
when my little girl asked why,
D C
oh daddy,oh daddy,
G
alissa lies
