[Intro] C G C G [Verse 1]
CWhen I picture my hGometown There’s a Dbronze spray-tanned statue of you CAnd a plaque undernGeath it That Cthreatens to push me down the Gstairs, at our school CAnd it was alwaysG the same searing
pain D
DBut I dreamed that one day, I could say
[Chorus] All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’
DAnd I can’t forgive the way you made me feel GScreamed “Fuck you, Aimee” to the C night sky, as the bloDod was gushin’ DBut I can’t forget the way you made me heal
C G C G [Verse 2]
CAnd it wasn’t a fGair fight, or a cDlean kill DEach time that Aimee stomped across my gravе CAnd then she wrote hGеadlines In the Clocal paper, laughing at each Gbaby step I’d take And it was Calways the Gsame searDing pain DBut I prayed that one day, I could say
[Chorus]
GAll that time you were throwin’ Cpunches, I was buildin’ D somethin’ DAnd I couldn’t wait to show you it was real GScreamed “Fuck you, Aimee” to the C night sky, as the bloDod was gushin’ DBut I can’t forget the way you made me heal GEveryone knows that my mCother is a saintlDy woman DBut she used to say she wished that you were dead GI push each boulder up the hCill Your words are still just Dringing in my head, ringing in my head
[Bridge]
I Emwrote a thousand songs that you Amfind uncool I bGuilt a legacy which you cDan’t undo But Emwhen I count the scars, there’s a Ammoment of truth That there Gwouldn’t be this, if there Dhadn’t been Cyou G C G
[Verse 3]
CAnd maybe you’ve refGramed it And Din your mind you never beat my spirit black and blue CI don’t think you’ve cGhanged much And Cso I changed your name, and any Greal defining clues And one day,C your kid comes home Gsingin’ A Dsong that only us two is gonna know is about you, ’cause—
[Chorus]
GAll that time you were throwin’ Cpunches, it was all for Dnothin’ And our town, it looks so small, from way up here GScreamed “Thank you, Aimee” to the Cnight sky, and the stars arDe stunnin’
'Cause I can’t forget the way you made me heal
GEveryone knows that my mCother is a saintlDy woman But she used to say she wished that you were dead GSo I pushed each boulder up the hCill Your words were still just Dringing in my head, ringing in my head
[Outro]
