Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Am Am F

You play the Am's and F's in the intro like this (and the Am's on the verses lke this too)

Am Am F

AmYou need to get out of this house

I’ll walk you down to town

We’ll go act our age

Kick rocks, waste summer days

Penny candy at the general store

I’d buy us a pop if I had more

Keep walking inland all day

Spitting and cursing each other’s name

F“Ain’t this what Am

ain’t this what brothers are supposed to do?”

FThe blood between us, makes it all but truAme

AmSo we roll on through

Out past the quarries, sandpits too

Swim out among the rocks and cliffs

Ignorant youth keeps us from death

Find our way out to the tracks

The sun, it beats down on our backs

Well, heaven help us if there’s a train

Dodge it like the beaches of Normandybut

F“Ain’t this what… ain’t this what brothers are supposed to doAm?”

FThe blood between us, makes it all but truAme

The chords switch up here to C,G,Am,F The violin sounds good here so I added the violin

below and you can play it with the strum pattern, I used an example after with the C chord

CAnd we saw that smoke rising over Gtrees

And I sAmwore, I swore, I swore that train was out for Fme

CSo I held him tight and felt those tracks rumble underGneath

AmHe swore, he swore if I didn’t let go he would knock me off my fFeet

And that’s what he diCd

And that's what he diGd

And that's what he dAmid

And that's what he diFd

Then it ends with Am's again. please rate
