Small town stars shine bright for a day

The moon lights up a watery grave

Woods move in the night time breeze

That lifts from the lake through the trees

On the night that defined my name

Fantasy or monster, you say

Watched my boys ride the incline down

All for a paper gown
CHORUS:

Long ago I used to be

F little girl on my daddy's knee

Dreams lie like diamond rings

Babies and pretty things

I watched my car sink silently
G# D# Fm D#
My lover's sweatshirt wrapped around me
G# D#
On a black man, I blamed the crime
G# C7 Fm
With moans and screams and cries
G# D# Fm
Then I waited for him to call
G# D# Fm D#
My ready-made family gone after all
G# D#
While the world mourned an alibi
G# C7 Fm G#
My hopes began to die

The sheriff sat me down to pray

At the First Baptist Church on the ninth day

“Susan, make your conscience clean”
G# C7 Fm
“Sheriff, I've done a terrible thing”
G# D# Fm
I confessed that, for love's sake

I drowned my children in John D. Long Lake

They're with Jesus, looking down

At me in this paper gown
