E A D2
Now the plumber's got a drip in his spigot
E D2 A
The mechanic's got a clank in his car
E A B7
And the preacher's thinking thoughts that are wicked
C#m7 A B7sus B7
And the lover's got a lonely heart
D2 B-E/B
My friends ain't the way I wish they were
F#m7/B B F#m7/B B7 A/B B7
They are just the way they are
E D2 A F#m7 B7sus B7
I will be my brother's keeper, not the one who judges him
E D2 A F#m7 B7sus B7
I won't despise him for his weakness, I won't regard him for his strength
D2 A F#m7 B7
I won't take away his freedom, I will help him learn to stand
E D2 A F#m7
And I will, I will be my brother's keeper
E A D2 E D A2
Now this roof has got a few missing shingles
But at least we got ourselves a roof
And they say that she's a fallen angel
I wonder if she recalls when she last flew
There's no point in pointing fingers unless you're pointing to the truth
E
