Chapter 13: A Hero Appears
by The Lawrence Arms

A5             C5
The well went dry
F5                 G5
My blood thinned out

I scrapped through
A5           C5
A thousand layers
          F5         G5
Of paint-like years
A5            C5
The secret's in
F5                G5
Congested grins sigh
A5              C5                F5       G5
I'm trying to find places to breathe now


C5            F5
And if this were a book
      C5                  F5
I'd call this song the final chapter
A5           G5
And if you read it
               F5
You'd be laughin'
C5             G5        F5
If it could end right now
C5          G5          F5
The last lines would be


A5        C5       F5
My body jolted in
            G5
And out of stolen sound waves
A5           C5           F5
The world expands or shrinks
         G5
On any given Monday
A5         C5          F5          G5
Tuesday evening dyes a room blue
A5         C5              F5        G5
Friday's window has it's own view


C5            F5
And if this were a book
      C5                  F5
I'd call this song the final chapter
A5           G5
And if you read it
               F5
You'd be laughin'
C5             G5        F5
If it could end right now
C5          G5          F5
The last lines would be

Good friend,
G5           A5         F5              C5   G5
      A5   F5
How loud do you want life to shout her answers in your ear?


A5                C5              F5
She lights her streaming by on stiff necks
A5            C5              F5
Connected prayers used to sign off things
G5       A5
Keep on counting them
C5                    G5
Or maybe hold your breath
G5             A5         C5
I'm trying to exhale you softly
G5           A5
Don't be so vein
C5
I'm not impressed in past-tense
G5   A5       C5
I don't do impressions


C5      G5        F5
The blood has dried (Good friend, how loud do)
C5          G5                   F5
Now I can wash my hands with tears you cried (Want life to shout her)
C5            G5             F5
If you could frame this feeling (Good friend, how loud do)
C5    G5                F5
At night it would whisper to me
C5
Good friend,
G5           A5         F5              C5   G5
      A5   F5
How loud do you want life to shout her answers in your ear? [2x]
