C#m                         E
Too many times you're gonna go out with a-walkin'
C#m                         E
Too many times you come out late
C#m                        E                                    A
Too many times you set yourself out of the scene, it makes you walk up straight
             C#m
It makes you walk up straight

C#m                          E
Too many times you trade the bottle for the body
C#m                             E
One drop for breath and one for skin
C#m                      E                                 A
You say nobody knows the truth about your body, are you entirely thin?
          C#m          B
Are you entirely thin?

                E                          B
But if I were a good man, would it really happen?
                  C#m                    A
Would you walk me home and everyday from work
                E                          B
But maybe I'm a good man, wouldn't let it happen
             C#m                     A
I believe in love, I'm married to my work

                 E                   B                   C#m
Cause I can be a father, I can be a brother, I can be a flower, rise up in
    F#
the dirt
                A                          B
We were born to live here, We were born to die here
        D
And you know this when you work
          D
Yeah, you watch me when you work

Continues after the ad
             A
When you are free from the work of this house
          C#m
Well, you know what to do with your hands
         D   C#m B
It's not sure
               A
You got a few ideas

             A
And when you wake from this shell of this body
            C#m
Or will you sink your ghost in a man?
               D   C#m B
Well, it's not hope
                     F#              E      G#
You've got something better off your sleeve

Bridge:(C#m E(high) C#m E(low))

C#m                              E
Too many times you'll bleed your love dry for your family
C#m                     E
And let it over in your sleep
C#m                         E                             A
You'll overtry to hold some burden like a man, something you can keep
          C#m
Something you can keep

C#m                              E
You smell the scent of something burning in the kitchen
C#m                         E
He smells the future on the lawn
C#m                                E                               A
These are the things we've come to recognize as truth, we cut the right into wrong
           C#m
We cut the right into wrong

                E                          B
But if I were a good man, would it really happen?
                  C#m                    A
Would you walk me home and everyday from work
                E                          B
But maybe I'm a good man, wouldn't let it happen
             C#m                     A
I believe in love, I'm married to my work

                   E                     B                     C#m
Cause I could be a father, I could be a brother, I could be a flower, rise up
       F#
in the dirt
                A                          B
We were born to live here, We were born to die here
        D
And you know this when you work
          D
Yeah, you watch me when you work

              A
It seems that we used to live like pebbles
           C#m
But now we get scared like our parents
                D   C#m B
Or struggle and fade
                     A
It's just a waste of money

             A
And when you wake up tomorrow, my son
                C#m
Will you be the father of something terrible
           D                   B
It will it shine, without your life (x3)
             D
But It won't bury you, cause we know

A                 C#m                    D                        A
Somewhere in the darkness, you will find love, baby you will find love (x2)
                  F#              A
And You will feel young again (x3)
                  A
And you will feel young
