A Little Work

D                          A
 Got a lot of answers I'm looking for in these meds
D                          A
 'Bout time I talk to somebody, shrink my head
D                     A
 A lot of promises, broken things that were said
D                             A
 And I can't get out of this bed
D                           A
 Got bruises on my heart, plenty scars on my mind
D                        A
 Got blisters under the band-aid over my life
D                        A
 Gonna rip it open and show the world what's there
D                       A
 Lord knows I'm not perfect

[Pre-Chorus]
     G            Em                 A
When everything around me starts to fall
                        D
I rise up again to the call

[Chorus]
       F#m                     Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit broken (Yeah)
D      F#m                    Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit hurt (Yeah)
D      F#m                 Bm      A
 We've all got wounds half open (Yeah)
D   F#m     Bm A          D   F#m Bm
 We all can use a little work
A          D F#m Bm A
 A little work,      a little

[Verse 2]
D                         A
 Gotta wait first of the month to pick up that check
D                              A
 He bounced, and left, it was over, never came back
D                              A
 Had a lot of questions 'bout daddy after he left
D                              A
 Now it's just momma and them kids, and she said
D                                A
 "I'll hold her down, don't you worry, we'll find a way
D                          A
 No matter how, I'll make sure the bills get paid"
D                           A
 She gave it all and thank God their mouths got fed
D                            A
 She prayed the cycle would end

[Pre-Chorus]
     G            Em                 A
When everything around me starts to fall
                        D
I rise up again to the call

[Chorus]
       F#m                     Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit broken (Yeah)
D      F#m                    Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit hurt (Yeah)
D      F#m                 Bm      A
 We've all got wounds half open (Yeah)
D   F#m     Bm A          D   F#m Bm
 We all can use a little work
A          D F#m Bm A
 A little work,      a little

[Bridge]
G
 Sometimes when you feel like you need it
A
 They send in the medic, woah
G
 But if it's your soul that is bleeding
A
 That slow drip won't help it, no
G
 It's time to get up to the front of the line
A
 The guards of the battle and straight for the mind
G
 Well, well, well, well
          A
 There's nothing that's holding you down

 Stuck on the ground, far from the crown
         A                                D
 'Cause you are a warrior more than you know

[Chorus]
       F#m                     Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit broken (Yeah)
D      F#m                    Bm     A
 We're all just a little bit hurt (Yeah)
D      F#m                 Bm      A
 We've all got wounds half open (Yeah)
D   F#m     Bm A          D   F#m Bm
 We all can use a little work
          D       F#m       Bm
A little work, a little (A little, a little )
A
  A little
