Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro II at 1:00

we were tight knit boys brothers in more than name

you would kill for me and knew that i'd do the same

and it cut me sharp hearing you'd gone away

but everything goes away

yeah everything goes away

but i'm gonna be here til i'm nothing

put bones in the ground

i was there when you restless

left in the dead of night

i was there when three months later

you were standing in the door all beaten and tired

and i stepped aside

Interlude

everything goes away

yeah everything goes away

but i'm gonna be here til i'm nothing

put bones in the ground

so quiet down

Interlude

we were opposites at birth

i was steady as a hammer

no one worried cause they knew just where i'd be

and they said you were the crooked kind

that you would never have no words

but you were always gold to me

back when we were kids

we swore we knew the future

and how our words would take us halfway round the world

but i never left this town

and you never saw new york

and we aint ever crossed the sea

but i am fine with where i am now

this home is home and all that i need

but for you this place is shame

you can blame me when there's no one left to blame

oh i don't mind

Interlude

well all my life i've never known where you've been

there were holes in you

the kind that i could not mend

and i heard you say

right when you left that day

does everything go away

yeah everything goes away

but i'm gonna be here til forever

so just call when you're around
