Am, C, Dm,  G(x6)
[Chorus]
My Brothers AmBlood boils in my arms.
Balls my Cfingers into fists.
It bubbles Dmblisters burns my palms.
It floods with Gfury fights and fits.
[Verse]
It’s got the Amgood guy in me hiding.
It kicks my Chumble heart around.
It’s got me Dmfiending for the fire
That could Gfinish off this town.
Oh it’s got me good.
[Interlude]
Am, C, Dm,  G(x3)
[Chorus]
My brothers Amblood on the cherry tree.
It stains to Cbark from branch to root.
It puddles Dmthick with pits and leaves.
It stains the Gsweetness from the fruit.
[Verse]
It's got me Amlooking for communion.
Some hiding Cspot off underground.
An open Dmplot I could climb into.
A lightnGing promise in my mouth.
A black out Coath I swore and Gmeant.
I couldn’t Dmconger up aAmgain.
I don’t Cknow one Gthing Fabout my Ebrother’s Amblood.
No, Goh.
I don’t Amknow one thing Eabout my brother’s Amblood.
[Solo]
Am, C, Dm,  G(x5)
[Verse]
It’s my brother’s Amblood in my dirty lung.
On my crooked mCouth and my swollen tongue.
On my fathers Dmgun. On each strangers face.
Across the blue bird sGky. On every hand I shake.
Night after nAmight, on each chuckled prayer.
Such sweet relCief, my fist full of hair.
And each desperate dDmrug for elusive peace.
And every endless niGght and every wasted week.
All that diaAmlogue doubling back on me.
All that tangled taClk. All my growling need.
It’s my brother’s bDmack. It’s my father’s arms
Every twisted faGct. In my sorry heart. (My sorry heart.)
[Interlude]
Am, C, Dm,  G(x3)
[Outro]
I spit and I sCcream 'What’s done is Gdone'.
Go make your pDmeace with everyAmone.
I don’t Cknow one Gthing Fabout my Ebrother’s Amblood.
No, Goh.
I don’t Amknow one thing Eabout my brother’s Amblood.

My Brothers Blood boils in my arms.

Balls my fingers into fists.

It bubbles blisters burns my palms.

It floods with fury fights and fits.

It’s my brother’s blood in my dirty lung.

On my crooked mouth and my swollen tongue.

On my fathers gun. On each strangers face.

Across the blue bird sky. On every hand I shake.

Night after night, on each chuckled prayer.

Such sweet relief, my fist full of hair.

And each desperate drug for elusive peace.

And every endless night and every wasted week.

All that dialogue doubling back on me.

All that tangled talk. All my growling need.

It’s my brother’s back. It’s my father’s arms

Every twisted fact. In my sorry heart. (My sorry heart.)
