G+G
get em up get em up get your shoulders up
get your backbone straight
keep an empty cup
B minorBm
put your axe in the wood
get your focus fixed
keep your body in the ring
gotta take some licks
C majorC
and let it all come back to you
all the memories
which she put you through
G+G
bring it up to the light
put it in a frame
D MajorD
hang it out in the open where the children play
C majorC
let it sting your eyes
clamp your chest
lead with love
and embrace the rest
D MajorD
embrace the demons
with all their claws
embrace this life
with all its scars
G+G
and how can I forgive of you
things you said you'd never do
E minorEm
words you said you'd never say
darling how'd we lose our way
C majorC
in the wilderness
just trying our best
G+G D MajorD
to stay free
Intro
G+G
at an empty space on the edge of town
you had us meet on neutral ground
B minorBm
your coat was grey
your eyes were blue
my arms and hands ached for you
C majorC
my stolen train
my flock of birds
when your lips said those words
G+G
trees went black
angels fell
D MajorD
armies burned the carousel
C majorC
say you didn't mean a thing
say you're coming home again
D MajorD
up the river of regret
say we ain't seen nothin' yet
G+G
how can I forgive of you
things you said you'd never do
E minorEm
words you said you'd never say
darling how'd we lose our way
C majorC
in the wilderness
where loneliness
G+G D MajorD
cuts so deep
G+G
and all the expectations we
put upon ourselves to be
E minorEm
things our parents never would
how could we have been so sure
C majorC
in the wilderness
just tryin' our best
G+G D MajorD
to stay free
