  D
You don't have any secrets when you come into the world
    Em7           G
You're open like a book and the pages get filled
  D
The leaves keep turning and on every single page
   Em7            G
They write their story with the marks on you face
D

Marks on your face


D
Locked in your head, an unbreakable code
 Em7            G
A secret never spoken, is a story never told
   D
Gonna show you the back of my hand, they say
    Em7            G
You can hide those scars, but they hurt you every day
   D          Em7 G
They hurt you every day
   D         Em7 G
They hurt you every day


CHORUS:
     G             D
What was written on the back of his hand

You can say it out loud, you can say it again
     G             D
What was written on the back of his hand

You won't say it again


D
Water is holy, when it falls from the sky
Em7             G
Water tastes bitter, when it falls from your eyes
  D
Lay down on the ground and look up at the sky
      Em7             G
There's no rhyme or reason, when you're watching time fly
D         Em7 G
Watching time fly


     D
When the stars come out, the night is alive
  Em7            G
Connect those stars with the lines of your life
     D
With the lines on your hand, with the words that you write
Em7          G
One true word's gonna beat a pack of lies
D          Em7 G
Beat a pack of lies
D          Em7 G
Beat a pack of lies
