Verse 1:
A                                          F#m
It seems like you?re doing better these days
A                                       F#m
Even though things are falling apart
                  A                    F#m
I know it?s brutal working minimum wage
                      E5                          D
It?s like you?re finished before you start
  A                               F#m
Things got ugly for a while back there
    A                                              F#m
I know I thought that you wouldn?t pull through
  A                                    F#m
Late at night when the phone would ring
E                                          D
There?s no telling what you would do


Verse 2:
A                                           F#m
Sometimes we?d yell and act mad as hell
A                                       F#m
Sometimes we?d act like we didn?t care
A                                       F#m
Some of our love was just suffocating
E                                         D
It left you turning blue and gasping for air


Chorus:
F#m                D             A                               E
C?mon kid, c?mon, it?s one foot and then the other
F#m                              D
Everybody needs a hand sometimes,
A                             E
everybody needs a brother
F#m                       D
Well c?mon kid, c?mon,
        A                E
I?m reaching out to you
F#m                    D           A
Get out of bed kid, face the world,
        E
And show us what you can do

Interlude: A E A E

Verse 3:
A                                 F#m
I?m sorry I was always casting stones
A                                 F#m
Like my glass house couldn?t be smashed
A                                  F#m
I spent as many nights as wild as a lion
   E                             D
I was lucky that I never crashed
A                                     F#m
Look, I?ve never really been no angel,
A                         F#m
I see a lot of myself in you
A                                          F#m
This little town can feel a lot like prison
E
And angry young men
E                                  D
Angry young men always have something to prove
 D
You know I always have something to prove


Chorus:
F#m                D             A                               E
C?mon kid, c?mon, it?s one foot and then the other
F#m                              D
Everybody needs a hand sometimes,
A                             E
everybody needs a brother
F#m                       D
Well c?mon kid, c?mon,
        A                E
I?m reaching out to you
F#m                    D           A
Get out of bed kid, face the world,
        E
And show us what you can do

Interlude: A E A E

Bridge:
D                                A
I know you ended up with bills to pay
E                                 E
I know she promised you that she would stay
 D                               A
I know they told you he died for your sins
E
And he?s the only way
D                             A
I know it caught you by surprise
E                              E
I got a call that you almost died
D                             A
Second chances are a crime to waste,
E
So don?t let time decide
E
Don?t let time decide

C?mon kid, c?mon, it?s one foot and then the other
F#m                              D
Everybody needs a hand sometimes,
A                             E
everybody needs a brother
F#m                       D
