Blue October - For My Brother: chords

Am                  C                  G
It would simply say everything if you would
                                    Am  C
Take a pen and write my name on a friend
           G
Who never cared to let me in

Then take a fast ravine that for
Three years swimming straight upstream and the wind
The wind will drag me down in the end

You live inside my wall and I
I reach back, hit you harder than God falls
Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen

You're such a line to break and I'm
I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end
But I just want to be happy again

Chorus:
D Em     C
Until it all falls down
                     D
And where does that leave me?
D                                                Em
With things, things, I've got so many things to say
         C                   D
With a broken heart and a straight face
I'm saying, "Brother, help me"

It's just a natural phase that I
I go through and then it's taken away
And then bam, bam, I'm fixed
(Fixed, fixed, fixed..)

And I'm in another place to be, where I
I can't sleep without the thought of me being
So, so damn sick (I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sick)

Chorus:
But take this song, take this song away
Until it all falls down
And where does that leave me?
With things, things, I've got so many things to say
With a broken heart and a straight face

And he says "Reach for the girl
Reach for the girl and hold her close
Believe you can shine when you're silver
And I promise you gold, I promise you gold
And whenever you're dark inside
Don't let go, no, don't let go
Remember there's rain and there's candy
And Christmasy winter snow
And remember I love you the same
And I'll strangle your pain"

And he tells me to sing, and I sing
And I sing for my brother who keeps me sane
And tells me everything will be okay

I'm so alone
God, I'm so alone
I'm so alone
I'm alone
