The Fixer comes home one night

Tinkers with the kitchen light

Leaves ginger ale on the nightstand

She's too tired to take a sip

So The Fixer finds something to fix


Chorus:

         D#m               B
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts

D#m                B
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs

Transistor radios, scrap metal

Old keys to unlock unknown things

The Fighter says "Some things just can't be fixed"

             B                    F#
Touching the cross on her necklace

              D#m                    B
Reminding The Fixer that she still believes

                                     F#
He whispers, "Then ask for a miracle please"


Verse 4:

                                C#
The Fighter is fighting so damn hard

              B                        F#
She sits on a chair out in the backyard

        D#m                      B
And the kids will come by later on

                                    F#
And they'll all pretend nothing is wrong


Chorus:

          D#m               B
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts

D#m                B
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs

D#m        C#      B
Transistor radios, scrap metal

G#m                 G#m
Hand-me-down tools, one of everything

           B                       D#m - C#
He's got old keys to unlock unknown things

        B      G#          D#m - C#
Unknown things,   unknown things

        B
Unknown things, unknown things


Verse 5:

          F#                          C#
The Fixer washes the grease from his hands

              B                     F#
Turns off the light by the basement stairs

             D#m                       B
Kneels down, elbows on the bed next to her

      G#
And prays he can find a way

B                          D#m   C#
Prays he can find a way to fix her

   B     G#
To fix her

       D#m   C#
Oh, to fix her
