Break Your Knees

Chords

Standard

Am
Breaks your knees and leaves you so
     C                                G
The sun can burn you up and wear you out
          F
It's an angry summer

Am
There's no room to smile
           C                            G
When the face you make just before you cry
                        F    Am  G
Looks so young like a child

      Am      C       G       F

      Am         C      G

Your wounds are gonna heal


 Am                              C
Life on earth will end for all conceived
                          G
And prove to be only a breath,
                               F
A mist, a womb for what's to come

How soon forever arrives Am....G
