A Em
One day on one tombstone
G
All our names should go
D
We shared a life
A Em
The beauty and the ugliness
G
Through all pain and death
D
The birth of a child
[CHORUS]
A Em
Thanks for throwing me the line when I've lost sight of it
G D
You're the only reason I can exhale
A Em
And now, suddenly that when I find that the outcome's just not right
G
From what I just did
D
You're the only thing I can breathe through
Here, my sweet friends, a few lines of poetry
They may be laughable, but thanks for laughing with me
And here's to the next time I wrap myself around a tree
I know that you'll be there with bells on
to pull me off
[CHORUS]
G D A
And you can tell me a story I've heard before
A
I'll insult your mother
Em G A
Then you can tell me where to go
[CHORUS (x2)]
