La Costa Notre This Thing Of Ours chords by The Glorious Sons
Guitar chords with lyrics
Intro:
C Dm Em Dm
Verse 1:
C
Your Brother cornered me last night, at AJ's hanger
Dm
He had the look in his eyes of a stranger
Em
Then he reached for his blade, told me to say your name
Dm
And everything went black
C
I woke up with his knife, in my left hand
Dm
He was staring at the ceiling like what I might've
Em
I grabbed his wallet and your mother's ring
Dm
And left out the back
Bridge:
F
Then your father showed up, to my house
G G#dim
With a car full of friends
Am
I hopped 16 fences, crossed the river
G
Trying to get away from them
F
Then I made it to my brother's, stayed the night
G G#dim
And took a plane to Berlin
Am
I spent the whole damn flight, staring out the window
G
And writing to you on this napkin
Chorus:
C
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that
Dm
No they've bent their hearts too far
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
Instrumental:
C Dm Em Dm
Verse 2:
C
When they found Johnny, I wasn't surprised
Dm
They pulled him out of the river, tongue there between his eyes
Em Dm
But it was news to me, when they found his sister too.
C Dm
The RCMP started hanging around, they didn't say much but I heard it loud
Em Dm
And now I know, that what I heard was true
Bridge:
F
Well some men think they're above the bible
G G#dim
Some men think they're above the law
Am G
Some men just aren't born with anything to lose
F
But baby if I die, then I'd be nothing,
G G#dim
and if I ain't anything then I ain't worth lovin
Am G
Baby I'm afraid of death because I love you
Chorus:
C
Oooohhhhhh the night I met you
Dm
I crossed my stars, you were driving your daddy's car
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
C
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that
Dm
No they bent their hearts too far
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
Verse:
C
When I was younger, I lived on the corner
Dm
Above a general store, with my mother
Em Dm
Her boyfriend used to beat her black and blue
C Dm
I spent many a night, in my bedroom, thinking of him
And what I'd do
Em Dm
Till I met your brother, and he taught me that I didn't have to
Bridge:
F
We took him out in the woods past highway 15
G G#dim
And we worked on his face till he couldn't be seen
Am G
We left him, naked, bloody, and shivering in the morning dew
F
And my poor mother, who's sick in the head
G G#dim
Your brother stood by me, next to her bed
Am G
And he told me that we killed him, because we had to
Chorus:
C
You can't beg forgiveness, from men like that
Dm
No they've bent their hearts too far
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
C
Oooohhhhhh the night I met you, I crossed my stars
Dm
You were driving your daddy's car
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
Outro:
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
Em Dm
They dont understand, this thing of ours
C Dm Em Dm
This thing of ours
C Dm Em Dm
