Evangeline

Dm
(fingerpick)

Dm
He won't lay a finger on you
          G             Dm
He won't wreck your pretty face
Dm
But he'll tell you that you're worthless
G                      Dm
Just to put you in your place
 Dm                         G           D
Well, you don't have to be kicked to be bruised,
A
you know
Dm                   G          D
You don't have to be hit to be abused
A
Evangeline, you're a hard one
          Dm                     A
Your denial is bolstered by your dreams
A
Thinking love is gonna save you
A
But it ain't love if it's mean, Evangeline
Dm
And the smile that you're wearing
            G       Dm
Is just a lovely veil
Dm
For the secrets that you're hiding
                   G      Dm
That are just too dark to tell
Dm               G          D     A
You don't have to be cut to be scarred, no
Dm                G         D
You don't have to be struck to leave a mark
A
Evangeline, you're a hard one
Dm                                A
Your denial is bolstered by your dreams

A
Thinking love is gonna save you
A
But it ain't love if it's mean, Evangeline
Dm                     G         D         A
You don't have to be kicked to be bruised, no
Dm                    G         D
You don't have to be hit to be abused
A
Evangeline, you're a hard one
Dm                                 A
Your denial is bolstered by your dreams
A
Thinking love is gonna save you
A
But it ain't love if it's mean, Evangeline
A
It ain't love, Evangeline
A
It ain't love, Evangeline
A
It ain't love, Evangeline
A
It ain't love, Evangeline
A                      Dm
It ain't love, Evangeline
