The Devil in My Bloodstream The Wonder Years
half step down
First Tab 100% correct
We wiped out all the [D]buffalo around the turn of the last [Bm]century
And so it's [G]factories and sawgrass, wheat fields and asphalt laid in [A]front of me
The midwest feels like a [D]hollow place that we filled with love and [Bm]industry
And we're [G]staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits
[A]Silent as the pastor reads the eulogy
**G A Bm A G
Well I, I wanted to see just a little bit of everything
Let me b[A]e
Two blackbirds on a [D]highway [G]sign are laughing at [Bm]me at four in the [A]morning
They played the war drum [D]out of [G]time
So I'm not [Bm]sure where I've been [A]marching
I want to be [Bm]strong, [D]but it's not [G]easy anymore
I'm hoping I'm [D]wrong[A] [G]
It's sixteen hours [D]straight to home from the heart of north [Bm]Missouri
And so I [G]search through my great-grandpa's memoirs
For the devil in my b[A]loodstream
Depression grabbed his [D]throat and choked the life out of him [Bm]slowly
I got the s[G]ame blood coursing through my veins
It'll come for me [A]eventually
(Power Chords now) D
I bet I'd be a f**king coward
I bet I'd never have the [Bm]guts for war
Cause I[G] can't spend another month away from here
These f[A]rantic rest stop phone calls don't get answered anymore
But [G]I, [A]I wanted to know if I could [Bm]please [A]come [G]home
So let me kn[A]ow
(Chorus)
I [D]know how it feels to be[A] at war[G] with a world that never loved me
I [D]know how it feels to be[A] at war[G] with a world that never loved me
**-First Prechorus
