The Devil in My Bloodstream The Wonder Years
The Wonder Years - The Devil In My Bloodstream
Key - C#
We wiped out all the [C#]Buffalo
Around the turn of the last [A#m]century,
And so it's [F#]factories and sawgrass,
Wheat fields and asphalt laid in [G#]front of me.
The Midwest feels like a h[C#]ollow place
That we filled with love and [A#m]industry.
And we're [F#]staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits,
[G#]Silent as the pastor reads the eulogy.
Well[F#] I wanted to[G#] see just a l[A#m]ittle [G#]bit of [F#]everything.
Let me [G#]be.
Two blackbirds on a [C#]highway [F#]sign
Are laughing at [A#m]me at four in the [G#]morning.
They played the war drum [C#]out of [F#]time
So I'm [A#m]not sure where I've been m[G#]arching.
I wanna be [A#m]strong, but it's not [F#]easy anymore.
I'm hoping I'm wro[C#]ng.[G#] [F#]
It's sixteen hours [C#]straight to home
From the heart of North [A#m]Missouri,
And so I [F#]searched through my great-grandpop's memoirs
For the devil in my [G#]bloodstream.
Depression grabbed his t[C#]hroat
And choked the life out of him [A#m]slowly.
I've got the [F#]same blood coursing through my veins
And it'll come for me e[G#]ventually.
I bet I'd be a fucking [C#]coward.
I bet I'd never have the [A#m]guts for war,
'Cause I can't[F#] spend another month away from here.
These [G#]frantic rest stop phone calls don't get answered anymore.
But [F#]I, I wanted to [G#]know if I could [A#m]please [G#]come [F#]home.
So let me k[G#]now.
Two blackbirds on a [C#]highway [F#]sign
Are laughing at [A#m]me at four in the [G#]morning.
They played the war drum [C#]out of [F#]time
So I'm [A#m]not sure where I've been [G#]marching.
I wanna be [A#m]strong, [C#] but it's not [F#]easy anymore.
I'm hoping I'm wr[C#]ong.[G#] [F#]
I'm hoping I'm wr[C#]ong.[G#] [F#]
[C#] [G#] [F#]
Two blackbirds on a [C#]highway [F#]sign
Are laughing at [A#m]me at four in the [G#]morning
They played the war drum [C#]out of [F#]time
So I'm [A#m]not sure where I've been [G#]marching.
I wanna be s[A#m]trong.[C#] [F#]
I wanna be s[C#]trong, bu[G#]t it's not e[F#]asy anymore.
