I lift that hammer, hammer's heavy and let that fall upon a stone and let that shake these chains that

So tonight it's cold as bullets keys walk up and down my tiers tell myself the end is coming soon

to chase away the fear, that same fear that's got me drinkin' and put these tracks on down my arm
          Am                            Am
that same fear's been inside me, ever since I was born

I lift that hammer, hammer's heavy and let that fall upon a stone and let that shake these chains that

bind me and build these walls I call my home I've got scars their poorly mended and I don't seem to fit
              C                                 G

for the strumming pattern
