Tom: A
A
Little ears hide behind closed doors so you don't know they're there
D
Little ears sneak out of bed and hide in shadows at the top of the stairs
A
Little ears rarely do get seen but they'd hear more than you'd know
D
Little ears hide their tears as they hug you and skip off down the road
[PreChorus]
F#m E D
And when you're with your friends you don't want them to hear
F#m E D
Cos you don't know they saw you last night when you were in tears
[Chorus]
F#m D A
Little ears hold the weight of the world with the secrets they won't say
F#m D A
Cos little ears love you more than you know and they won't let you get taken away
F#m E
You'll stay strong for them and you're not to blame
D
That little ears will come when you're in pain
F#m E D
Little ears would never let you see
F#m E D
They're stronger than they should be
F#m E D
[Verse]
A
Little ears growing up tryna prove they're not little anymore
D
Little ears have a new family now that you walked out the door
A
But little ears search for love in wrong places; you could never give it to them
D
So little ears follow down your path with the wrong friends and wrong men
[PreChorus]
F#m E D
And then they'll have a child too young with nowhere to go
F#m E D
But they'll hide their fears so new little ears would never know
[Chorus]
F#m D A
Little ears hold the weight of the world with the secrets they won't say
F#m D A
Cos little ears love you more than you know and they won't let you get taken away
F#m E
They'll stay strong for you and they're not to blame
D
That sometimes they can't hide all their pain
F#m E D
Little ears would never let you see
They're struggling more than they should be
[Bridge]
F#m* E D
And it's hard when all you hear is the world thinks you'll fail
F#m E D
When they write your life as another kid gone off of the rails
F#m E D
But little ears are stronger than you ever thought
D A
And they'll prove you wrong in this, I know
E A
Cos little ears have something to fight for
D E
And they have little ears of their own
[Chorus]
D
Little ears hold the weight of the world; there's still things they cannot say
E D
But little ears love you more than you know and you will never get taken away
E D
Cos you gave them strength, chased away their pain, and they know that they'll never fall again
Bm E D
Little ears have grown up and you can see
A
They're happy like they should be
