Brothers Blood

            Am
My Brothers Blood boils in my arms.
         C
Balls my fingers into fists.
           Dm
It bubbles blisters burns my palms.
               G
It floods with fury fights and fits.

[Verse]
             Am
It’s got the good guy in me hiding.
            C
It kicks my humble heart around.
            Dm
It’s got me fiending for the fire
           G
That could finish off this town.
Oh it’s got me good.

[Interlude]
Am, C, Dm, G (x3)

[Chorus]
            Am
My brothers blood on the cherry 
tree.
             C
It stains to bark from branch to 
root.
           Dm
It puddles thick with pits and 
leaves.
              G
It stains the sweetness from the 
fruit.

[Verse]
            Am
It's got me looking for communion.
            C
Some hiding spot off underground.
        Dm
An open plot I could climb into.
        G
A lightning promise in my mouth.
            C                G
A black out oath I swore and meant.
           Dm         Am
I couldn’t conger up again.
        C        G     F        
I don’t know one thing about my 
E        Am
brother’s blood.
    G
No, oh.
        Am             E      
I don’t know one thing about my 
            Am
brother’s blood.

[Solo]
Am, C, Dm, G (x5)

[Verse]
                  Am
It’s my brother’s blood in my dirty 
lung.
               C
On my crooked mouth and my swollen 
tongue.
              Dm
On my fathers gun. On each strangers
 face.
                      G
Across the blue bird sky. On every 
hand I shake.
             Am
Night after night, on each chuckled 
prayer.
              C
Such sweet relief, my fist full of 
hair.
                    Dm
And each desperate drug for elusive 
peace.
                    G
And every endless night and every 
wasted week.
            Am
All that dialogue doubling back on 
me.
                   C
All that tangled talk. All my 
growling need.
                   Dm
It’s my brother’s back. It’s my 
father’s arms
                G
Every twisted fact. In my sorry 
heart. (My sorry heart.)

[Interlude]
Am, C, Dm, G (x3)

              C                    
I spit and I scream 'What’s done is
 G
 done'.
              Dm             Am
Go make your peace with everyone.
        C        G     F        
I don’t know one thing about my 
E        Am
brother’s blood.
    G
No, oh.
        Am             E      
I don’t know one thing about my 
            Am
brother’s blood.
