My Blood

Am G C You came home crying from school today F C G Walked past me trying to hide the tears there on your face Am G C It's hard for me to explain F C G How humans find the pleasure of causing people pain F G But sometimes there's more to the story Am And we don't know what's going on in F G That home, behind closed doors Am Maybe there is something wrong F G So be brave, my little one Am I know you can be strong F G 'Cause you are just like your mom C Dm Say my name F When you're hurting, darling Am G F I'll take the demons away C Dm But you know there will come a day F When I won't be there, but Am G F I know that you'll be okay N.C. C Dm F 'Cause you are my blood C Dm F You're my blood Am G C Oh, I was 22 years old F C G My mother told me that you learn more as you go Am G C But I've spent many nights alone F C G Do I need more for me to make this house a home? F G 'Cause sometimes there's more to the story Am And they don't know what's going on in F G My life, behind those doors Am Maybe there is nothing wrong F G And I will keep holding on Am I know I can be strong F G 'Cause I am just like my mom C Dm And she told me, "Say my name F When you're hurting, darling Am G F I'll take the demons away C Dm But you know there will come a day F When I won't be there, but Am G F I know that you'll be okay F 'Cause you are my blood Am F G C My blood, my blood Am F G C My blood, you're my blood Am F G C My blood, my blood Am F G C My blood, you're my blood C Dm So say my name F When you're hurting, darling Am G F I'll take the demons away C Dm But you know there will come a day F When I won't be there, but Am G F I know that you'll be okay F 'Cause you are my blood Am F G C (My blood) my blood, you're my...
