Bruises

Am, Dm, Am
C, Dm, Am

[Verse]
Am            Dm
The trees are whispersing
    Am
Our story untold
C     Dm             Am
Birds humming tunes oh so old
C          Dm                 Am
I'd rather trade my mouth for beak
C          Dm              Am
Cuz all we do is fight whenever we speak

C, Dm, Am,
C, Dm, Am


[Verse 2]

C      Dm               Am
Shuffled Down these trees before
C           Dm        Am
My feet too weary to carry me anymore
C           Dm              Am
And nothing really seems to change
C           Dm                Am
Except the new bars and their neon L-n-ights


[Chorus]

       C              Dm                Am
And I really hope the best of a luck to you
       C        Dm                    Am
Even though we messed up bad I still love you
      C            Dm                  Am
And I hope that in your life you will succeed
                  C         Dm
And when you're in down and out
       Am
It's okay to bleed

Dm, C, G, Am

Am, Dm, Am
C, Dm, Am

[Verse 3]

C        Dm         Am
So tell me what to do now
C         Dm                 Am
Am I the only one who hasn't figured it out
C          Dm         Am
So tell me what to do now
C           Dm            Am
I guess the easy way is to walk the line


[Chorus 2]

      C               Dm                 Am
And I really hope the best of a luck to you
       C                  Dm            Am
Even though we screwed up bad I still think of you
      C            Dm                  Am
And I hope that in your life you will succeed
                  C         Dm
And when you're in down and out
         Am
You can call on me

Dm, C, G, Am

Am, Em, D, Am x2

Am
What once was is now gone
Em                D
In my ... by the bruises on my soul
