Scars
DRight through the wing of his eagle tattoo
GJake pointed out where that bullet passed Dthrough
Pete said that ain't nothin as he pulled off his hat
Git took 57 stiches to put my hairline Dback
ARed rolled up his shirt and laughed
said Gboys I'll top Dthat
Ashowed em where a buckin brahama bull nearly Gstomped him right in Ahalf
DScars, GEveryones got a Dstory
Ga tall tale of Dglory
Emthat somehow we Asurvived
DScars,
BmA flesh and blood F#reminder of how fragile we Dare
Gyou ain't lived Atill you got DScars
The stranger he just sat there till the last one was through
and oGl Carter said hey buddy how bout Dyou
his lips began to tremble and tears rolled from his eyes
as he Gtold about the woman who destroyed his Dlife
Ahe said the worst wound in the whole wide world
Gnever leaves a Dmark
Acause all I gots a hole Gwhere I use to have a Aheart
[Chorus]
GAnd you ain't loved Atill you got DScars
