Of love that was safe and so you learned to fight

        A minorAm    C majorC      E minorEm D MajorD
It seems like yesterday I called you up
     B minorBm    E minorEm     C majorC
I had a terrible case of the past

       G+G
And you took
     C majorC
Your machete
     G+G                     C majorC
And you sliced through the vines that wrapped around me
     G+G
And you said
  E minorEm         D MajorD
I dont know what i’m doing
C majorC       B minorBm   A minorAm
So I’ll just keep on cutting
    G+G                C majorC
It’s worth a little blood to get your arms free

 A minorAm    C majorC       E minorEm D MajorD
What do I do with the stuff
        A minorAm    C majorC     E minorEm D MajorD
It seems like yesterday I was in love
      B minorBm    E minorEm       C majorC
I kept on hardening the soft parts out
     D MajorD      G+G    C majorC
I didn’t know how to get them off
     A minorAm     B minorBm    C majorC
I didn’t know how to get them off


PRE-CHORUS:
     G+G
And you took
     C majorC
Your machete
     G+G                 C majorC
And you hacked through the wood in the surrounding
     G+G
And you said
E minorEm         D MajorD
I dont where I’m going
  C majorC     B minorBm    A minorAm
I just know that I'm heading
     G+G             C majorC
From the dead things piled up behind me


PRE-CHORUS:
     G+G
And you took
    C majorC
Your machete
     G+G            C majorC
And you carved out a path to my chest
       G+G
And you said see
 E minorEm       D MajorD
There’s nothing not worth keeping
 C majorC      B minorBm  A minorAm
You felt so many beatings
   G+G              C majorC
But nothings gonna work if you believe me
   G+G              C majorC
But nothings gonna work if you believe me


CHORUS:
E minorEm   D MajorD        C majorC    A minorAm

I’d take it to the ocean side the day you die
  E minorEm       D MajorD       C majorC     A minorAm
I stood out on the dock no matter how hard I tried
  E minorEm       D MajorD         C majorC    A minorAm
I couldn’t drop it in a fight could last and die
