Intro

(some hammers on the 5th string when you play Am and C)

There was some blood coming from my mouth And a little

dying in thought-- As- my- breath

It's been a--- long ^^time since then But I could feel myself repairing

And I co--eded my ^^fa--ther and my brother just a----s well

My breath is a hammer

My insides are taxed like an anvil

My heartbeat's a tremor

And with sleep came the cu----rsing You know I know what is the poison

There i----s little a ^^man can do When hi----s body is bent on a reckoning

The--se wounds can be hidden oh so well Yeah like a---------- demon

And I ca----n hear it in my ^^voice, oh Lord Can't ^^you-- hear ^^i-----t too?

My breath is a hammer

My insides are taxed like an anvil

My heartbeat's a tremor

My breath is a hammer

My insides are taxed like an anvil

My heartbeat's a tremor
