Chords with lyrics

Intro:
C majorC DmDm E minorEm DmDm

Verse 1:

   C majorC
Your Brother cornered me last night, at AJ's hanger

     DmDm
He had the look in his eyes of a stranger

    E minorEm
Then he reached for his blade, told me to say your name

   DmDm
And everything went black

    C majorC
I woke up with his knife, in my left hand

    DmDm
He was staring at the ceiling like what I might've

       E minorEm
I grabbed his wallet and your mother's ring

  DmDm
And left out the back


Bridge:


     FF
Then your father showed up, to my house

    G+G         G#dimG#dim
With a car full of friends

     A minorAm
I hopped 16 fences, crossed the river

     G+G
Trying to get away from them


    FF
Then I made it to my brother's, stayed the night

     G+G        G#dimG#dim
And took a plane to Berlin

      A minorAm
I spent the whole damn flight, staring out the window

  G+G
And writing to you on this napkin

Chorus:

     C majorC
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that

      DmDm
No they've bent their hearts too far

     E minorEm             DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours


Instrumental:

C majorC DmDm E minorEm DmDm


Verse 2:

   C majorC
When they found Johnny, I wasn't surprised

        DmDm
They pulled him out of the river, tongue there between his eyes

      E minorEm                   DmDm
But it was news to me, when they found his sister too.

  C majorC                 DmDm
The RCMP started hanging around, they didn't say much but I heard it loud

  E minorEm                DmDm
And now I know, that what I heard was true


 Bridge:

   FF
Well some men think they're above the bible

G+G                G#dimG#dim
Some men think they're above the law

A minorAm                     G+G
Some men just aren't born with anything to lose


      FF
But baby if I die, then I'd be nothing,

     G+G                 G#dimG#dim
and if I ain't anything then I ain't worth lovin

A minorAm                   G+G
Baby I'm afraid of death because I love you


Chorus:

        C majorC
Oooohhhhhh the night I met you

               DmDm
I crossed my stars, you were driving your daddy's car

        E minorEm           DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours


     C majorC
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that

    DmDm
No they bent their hearts too far

        E minorEm          DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours


Verse:

      C majorC
When I was younger, I lived on the corner

    DmDm
Above a general store, with my mother

  E minorEm                  DmDm
Her boyfriend used to beat her black and blue

    C majorC                   DmDm
I spent many a night, in my bedroom, thinking of him

And what I'd do

    E minorEm                        DmDm
Till I met your brother, and he taught me that I didn't have to


Bridge:

      FF
We took him out in the woods past highway 15

    G+G                   G#dimG#dim
And we worked on his face till he couldn't be seen

       A minorAm                     G+G
We left him, naked, bloody, and shivering in the morning dew


  FF
And my poor mother, who's sick in the head

   G+G                G#dimG#dim
Your brother stood by me, next to her bed

    A minorAm                   G+G
And he told me that we killed him, because we had to


Chorus:

     C majorC
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that

      DmDm
No they've bent their hearts too far

       E minorEm           DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours


        C majorC
Oooohhhhhh the night I met you, I crossed my stars

     DmDm
You were driving your daddy's car

        E minorEm          DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours


Outro:

       E minorEm          DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours

       E minorEm          DmDm
They dont understand, this thing of ours

       C majorC  DmDm  E minorEm  DmDm
This thing of ours
