 5      6      -6     6     5
We were tight knit boys
  5   -4    4    -4      6       5
Brothers in more then name
  5       6     -6   6    5
You would kill for me
  5      5     -4    4  -4   4      4
And knew that I'd do the same
  5   6   -6   6     5
And it cut me sharp
  5   -4      4      -4    6  5
Hearing you'd gone away
 
  5     5   -4  4     -2   4 -4
But everything goes away
   -4    5  -4   5      -4    4 4
Yeah everything goes away
 
  4    6     6    6   6    -5     -5   -5    -5   5
But I'm going to be here until I'm nothing
  5      5    -4   4      -4
But bones in the ground
 
 -6 -6  -7      7,       7     -7    -6      6    5
And I was there, when you grew restless
4 -6  6   -5     6    5    -4
Left in the dead of night
  -6 -6  -7     7,       7       -7       -6      6 5 
And I was there, when three months later
  4      4       -5  -5  -5  -5  -5 5   5  5 -4    4     -4
You were standing in the door all beat and tired
  4  -5     5       4  4
And I stepped aside
 
   5  -4  4      -2   4 -4
Everything goes away
   -4     5  -4   5     -4   4  4
Yeah everything goes away
  4    6   6  6    6    -5     -5   -5    -5   5
But I'm gonna be here until I'm nothing
  5      5    -4   4      -4
But bones in the ground
 4   -5 5     4
So quiet down
 
  4     4     4  4   4   -4    4
We were opposites at birth
3   3   -4  -4  -4 5   -4   4
I was steady as a hammer
 3     3    5   5        5       5      5      5       5     4  -3
No one worried 'cause they knew just where I'd be
   5     5      5    5      5     5     5   -4     4
And they said you were the crooked kind
   3     3      3     5  5     5    -5     6
And that you'd never have no worth
  6    6      6     6  6      -5   5  -4
But you were always gold to me
 
  3      4       4     4     -4     4
And back when we were kids
  3      -4    -4   -4      5    -4 4
We swore we knew the future
   3    3       5       5       5    5    5     5       5      -5     6
And our words would take us half way 'round the world
 -5 -5  5 -4   -4    4      4
But I never left this town
   3    3    5  5     5    -5     6
And you never saw New York
   6    6    6    6  6    -5    5    -4
And we ain't ever cross the sea
 
 -6 -6 -7    7     7       -7  -6   6    5
But I am fine with where I am now
   4    6 -6  -6    6,     -5    5    6  5   -4
This home is home, and all that I need
  -6  -7    7,    7      -7  -6    6  5
But for you, this place is shame
  5     5    4      -5    -5     -5       -5    -5    5     5   4     -4
But you can blame me when there's no one left to blame
 
 4  -5   5      4
Oh I don't mind
 
 -6   6    5
All my life
  5    5 -4       4        -4       6       5
I've never known where you've been
    5       6       -6   6    5
There were holes in you
   5     5    -4  4    -4     4      4
The kind that I could not mend
 
   5  6    -6     6    5
And I heard you say
   5       -4     4    -4    6      5
Right when you left that day
   5      5   -4   4  -2   4 -4
Does everything go away?
   -4,     5  -4   5     -4    4  4
Yeah, everything goes away.
 
  4    6     6     6   6    -5   -5  -5 -5 5
But I'm going to be here 'til forever
 4   -4     5      5       5      4   -4.
So just call when you're around.
