The Wonder Years - The Devil In My Bloodstream

Key - C#

C#
We wiped out all the Buffalo
A#m
Around the turn of the last century,
F#
And so it's factories and sawgrass,

G#
Wheat fields and asphalt laid in front of me.
C#
The Midwest feels like a hollow place
A#m
That we filled with love and industry.
F#
And we're staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits,
G#
Silent as the pastor reads the eulogy.
F# G# A#m G# F#
Well I wanted to see just a little bit of everything.
G#
Let me be.


C# F#
Two blackbirds on a highway sign
A#m G#
Are laughing at me at four in the morning.
C# F#
They played the war drum out of time
A#m G#
So I'm not sure where I've been marching.
A#m F#
I wanna be strong, but it's not easy anymore.
C# G# F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.


C#
It's sixteen hours straight to home
A#m
From the heart of North Missouri,
F#
And so I searched through my great-grandpop's memoirs
G#
For the devil in my bloodstream.
C#
Depression grabbed his throat
A#m
And choked the life out of him slowly.
F#
I've got the same blood coursing through my veins
G#
And it'll come for me eventually.


C#
I bet I'd be a fucking coward.
A#m
I bet I'd never have the guts for war,
F#
'Cause I can't spend another month away from here.
G#
These frantic rest stop phone calls don't get answered anymore.
F# G# A#m G# F#
But I, I wanted to know if I could please come home.
G#
So let me know.


C# F#
Two blackbirds on a highway sign
A#m G#
Are laughing at me at four in the morning.
C# F#
They played the war drum out of time
A#m G#
So I'm not sure where I've been marching.
A#m C# F#
I wanna be strong, but it's not easy anymore.
C# G# F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.
C# G# F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.


C# G# F#

C# F#

A#m C# F#
I wanna be strong.
C# G# F#
I wanna be strong, but it's not easy anymore.
