For the love - BLUE OCTOBER (lyrics) chords
Start Jamming...
Okay, wait, go ahead.
[F] Oh, baby.
[A] Your mommy loves you very much.
[Dbm] Communication.
[D] I'll wait to see if we could ever get together and talk like we used to.
We get together and we [A] talk [C] like we used to.
But you [E] don't want to.
You want [D] separation.
And now that's strike three.
I tried everything.
[C] I worked so hard for you to [E] constantly hear how I fail and abandon [C] you.
I put my heart in a dream.
[Dm] And now that dream, it makes you [G] the baby.
She has food to eat [F] and your fancy house gets paid for.
You hear [C] me?
You never learned one [Dm] thing.
No, you never [A]
believed in [G] me.
So if you're gonna leave, get out.
[F] Just remember this is what I'm all about.
I do it for [Dm] the love.
I do it for the rain.
I do it [C] for the passion.
I do it for the pain.
I do it [Bb] for the rush.
I do it for the doubt.
I do it [A] for my daughter.
Maybe [F] she's what I'm about.
I do it [Dm] for my mom.
I do it for my dad.
I do it for [C] my sanity.
I do it for my friend.
[Am] I do it [Bb] for the audience who understands me.
Standing [F] on the stage, got the shit, let it bleed.
So pack it up, pack it down, write it up, write it down.
Just remember that I told you it's what I'm all about.
Wait, [G] wait, wait.
[G] I missed the tour where you told me not to come home again.
An [A] ex [F]-boyfriend was taking my place at a first [A] Le Mans.
[Gm] No!
How hard that was because,
cause you're a boy so crooked [G] and wrong.
[C] You were partying on the t-shirts like a motherfucking nuclear [Am] bomb.
Oh, God.
I [E] can't believe it.
[C] I lived in a hotel room [Dm] till the day she was born.
[G] And I never knew what words to say
[F] that could get us through our first chance [C] at divorce.
You promised change and I [Dm] promised you you'd know I'll drive back into the state.
[G] So if you're gonna leave, [F] get your way.
I do it [Dm] for the love, I do it for the right.
I do it [C] for the passion, do it for the pain.
I do it [Bb] for the rush, I do it for the doubt.
I do it [A] for my daughter, man, cause [F] she's what I'm about.
I do it for my [Dm] mom, I do it for my dad.
I do it [C] for my sanity, hanging from the thread.
I do it [Bb] for the audience who understands me.
Standing [Am] on the stage, got the [F] shit, let it bleed.
I do it [Dm] for my brother, I do it for his wife.
I do it [C] for my manager, cause now they save my life.
I do it [Bb] for the conference, I do it for release.
I do it [E] cause I'm sick of being [F] sad, it's more peace.
I do it [Dm] for the sunshine, for my friends.
I [C] did it for you, for you over [Bb] and over and over again.
That [Am] you'll never [F] understand.
Pack it up, pack it little, write it up, write it down.
Just remember that I told you it's what I'm all about.
[D] [E]
