Sticks and Stones Tabs & Lyrics by Dave Barnes
Sticks and Stones
guitar tabs lyrics
So as a person who just picked up the guitar and knows some basic chords (G D Em C) I
you can play like any song with them. These chords seemed to work for me so I hope they
for you!
Capo 3
Verse 1:
G C G C
You would have kept those words on your tongue,
G C G C
If you had known the hurt they had done.
G C G C
While your fists stay by, right by your side,
G C G C
Your words they bruise me deep inside.
Chorus:
C D G C
I'd rather have sticks and stones and broken bones
C D Em
than the words you say to me,
C D G C
Cause I know bruises heal and cuts will seal
Em D G
but your words beat the life from me.
Verse 2:
Sometimes your words are thick as lead,
You swing them strong upside my head.
But what hasn't killed has made me strong,
So i'll take my scars and move along.
*Chorus*
Bridge:
D G C
Goodbye is the best way that I know,
D G C
To forgive and still be letting go.
*Chorus*
