Jack Stauber - The ballad of hamantha

^BbLife's ex^Cmtension l^Amottery ^GmKind to some, but not ^Fto thee ^BbBorn with a ^Crare and sad ^Amdisease She grew ^Gma ham where her head ^Cshould ^Fbe

^BbFlowing hair, she was a ^Amcutie pie Mea^Gmty face and a lov^Fely eye Her ^Bbdream was to be a ^Amfamous star But at the ^Gmrate she was going, she wasn't ^Fgoing far

^BbHamantha, Ha^Ammantha You were i^Gmmpossible to ignore ^F H^Bbamantha, Ha^Ammantha So ^Gmgreedy we wanted more ^F

^BbHer father was a ^Dmsimple ^Amman ^{C Gm}He wanted to help "In any way ^Fthat I can!" ^BbmHome from school, ^Cmhe watched his daughter cry^Fm In the ^Gyard, he cursed God And fired ^Fat the sky

^BbFlowing hair, she was a ^Amcutie pie Me^Gmaty face and a lov^Fely eye ^BbDreams in the sky, her father ^Amfelt her pain Gm f And as he shot at the clouds, it began to rain

Ha^Bbmantha, Ha^Ammantha ^CmYou were i^Gmmpossible to ignore ^F H^Bbamantha, Ha^Ammantha So ^Gmgreedy we wanted more^F

^BbGot a call from the ^Amdoctor He had ^Gmsome amazing news ^Ffor her He ^Bbjust developed a cur^Ame I^Gm7f she hurried over now, he'd try it out ^Gmon ^Fher

^BbBurst out the door, she was bea^Amming A^Gmmong the raindrops her happy tears were ^Fstreaming ^BbFinally free from her pa^Amin But ^Gmsomething else fell with the ^Frain

A ^Bbstray bullet shot by her fa^Amther ^GmPainlessly nested i^Fnside her She ^Bbfell to the the sidewalk, now em^Ampty Of the ^Gmlife which once christ^Fened her body

^F"Nurse ^FShe... she's gone." ^F"Oh - oh dear." ^F"I left a lunch on the table in the operating room for the bereaved ^FA cooked ham, as is customary for these... dark situations." ^F"Doctor - what - which one is the - which one is the ham?" ^F"I - I must go, I'm on break." ^F"Oh dear." ^Bb

Flowing hair, she was a ^Amcutie pie Me^Gmaty face and a l^Fovely eye At her ^Bbtime of death The doc said ^Am"time to eat!" So ^Gmhe took a bite out of her ^Fface meat

Ha^Bbmantha, H^Amamantha ^CmYou were i^Gmmpossible to ignore ^F Ha^Bbmantha, Ha^Ammantha So ^Gmgreedy we wanted more^F

^BbSoaring infinitely through ^Fspace^Am H^Gmamantha's soul was ^Fgraced ^BbWith a glance of our ^Amhumble planet A^Gmt which she was amazed ^F

The ^Bbnews of her ^Amuntimely death Had ^Gmspread out near and fa^Fr And ^Bbthrough her soul, the ^Amtruth was whole The ^Gmdream had crossed the ba^Fr

H^Gmamantha had become a star^F H^Gmamantha was finally a ^Fstar H^Gmamantha had become a star^F H^Bbamantha was fina^Clly a ^Fstar
