My Brothers [Am]Blood boils in my arms.
Balls my [C]fingers into fists.
It bubbles [Dm]blisters burns my palms.
It floods with [G]fury fights and fits.
It?s got the [Am]good guy in me hiding.
It kicks my [C]humble heart around.
It?s got me [Dm]fiending for the fire
That could [G]finish off this town.
Oh it?s got me good.
Interlude
(Am, C, Dm, G)x3
My brothers [Am]blood on the cherry tree.
It stains to [C]bark from branch to root.
It puddles [Dm]thick with pits and leaves.
It stains the [G]sweetness from the fruit.
It's got me [Am]looking for communion.
Some hiding [C]spot off underground.
An open [Dm]plot I could climb into.
A lightn[G]ing promise in my mouth.
A black out [C]oath I swore and [G]meant.
I couldn?t [Dm]conger up a[Am]gain.
I don?t [C]know one [G]thing [F]about my [E]brother?s[Am] blood.
No, [G]oh.
I don?t [Am]know one thing [E]about my brother?s [Am]blood.
(Am, C, Dm, G)x5
It?s my brother?s [Am]blood in my dirty lung.
On my crooked m[C]outh and my swollen tongue.
On my fathers [Dm]gun. On each strangers face.
Across the blue bird s[G]ky. On every hand I shake.
Night after n[Am]ight, on each chuckled prayer.
Such sweet rel[C]ief, my fist full of hair.
And each desperate d[Dm]rug for elusive peace.
And every endless ni[G]ght and every wasted week.
All that dia[Am]logue doubling back on me.
All that tangled ta[C]lk. All my growling need.
It?s my brother?s b[Dm]ack. It?s my father?s arms
Every twisted fa[G]ct. In my sorry heart. (My sorry heart.)
Interlude
(Am, C, Dm, G)x3
I spit and I s[C]cream 'What?s done is [G]done'.
Go make your p[Dm]eace with every[Am]one.
I don?t [C]know one [G]thing [F]about my [E]brother?s[Am] blood.
No, [G]oh.
I don?t [Am]know one thing [E]about my brother?s [Am]blood.
