_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
[G#m] brother's blood boils in my arms
It [F#] balls [B] my fingers into fists
[G#m] It [C#] bubbles, blisters, [C#m] burns my palms
It floods [F#] with fury, fights, and fits
It's got [G#m] the good guy in me [G#] hiding
Kicks [B] my humble heart _ around
It's got [C#m] me fiending for the fire
_ That could [F#] _
finish off this town
[C#] It's got me [A#] gone
[G#m] It's [C#] _ _ _ _ _

my [G#m] brother's blood on a cherry tree
_ [A#m] _ [B] Stains the bark from branch to [N] root
It [G#] puddles thick [C#] with pits and leaves
Strains [F#] the sweetness from the fruit
It's got [G#] me looking for [G#m] communion
A hiding spot [B] off underground
_ An [G#] open [C#] plot I could climb into
A lightning [F#] promise in my mouth
A [B] blackout of the sworn [F#]-ment
I couldn't [C#m] _ conjure [G#m] up again _
[B] I don't know [F#] one thing [E] about [D#] my [G#m] brother's blood
No
[F#] _
I [E] don't know [G#] one thing about [D#m] my [G#m] brother's blood _
_ _ _ [B] _ [G#] _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ [G#m] _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] [B] It's [C#m] _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ [C#] _ [F#] _ _
_ _ _ [D#] _ my [G#m] brother's blood in my dirty lungs
In [G#] my crooked [B] mouth, [N] on my swollen tongue
[F#] On my father's gun, on each [N] stranger's face
Across the [F#] bluebird sky, on every [D#] hand I shake
[C] Night after [G#m] night, with each [N] chuckled prayer
Such sweet relief, my fist full of hair
With each desperate drive for elusive peace
With every endless night, with each wasted week
All that [D#] dialogue [F#] doubling back on me
All that tangled [B] talk, all my growling [G] need
It's my [C#] brother's back, it's my [D] father's arms
It's [D#] every [F#] twisted fact in my [N] sorry heart
My sorry heart, my [G#m] sorry _ _ heart
_ _ [C#m] _ _ [B] _ Spit _ _ _ [E] _ [C] _ [C#m] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] [B] and scream, what's [F#] done is done
Go make your [C#m] peace [G#m] with everyone
[C#m] They [B] don't [F#] need to know [E] about [D#] my [G#] brother's blood
_ [F#] No, _ they [G#m] don't need to [D#] know about my brother's blood
[G#m] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [N] _ Thank you very much _ _ _ _ _ _ _
