Bloodline


Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band Bloodline Tab by Sam Kurcab Capo 1st fret A E F#m E Rolling around a lifetime on a name that spells my past A E Bm E Carried through the mile markers up towards some last laugh A E F#m E And if fools could only prosper, I'm afraid what they might say A E Bm E From a podium built on generations bleeding what they make F#m (Bm) Because here it comes E Watch them all jump right in Bm D E Tell me, how could you refuse to float with the rest of them? F#m Bm D You were born into it, there's no shame if you drift A Down the bloodline Feeling temperamental underneath a broker sun A certificate of excellence, but no proof on your pay stub And if money's not a problem, I suggest you best believe There's ten dollars on the table, and a million up his sleeve And here they come, watch them all pass us by Tell me how could you refuse to look one in the eye? Two sheets to the wind all over again Down the bloodline Down the bloodline F#m Bm Yes, it feels scary to be ordinary D E In a world that don't know your name F#m Bm It would not be weird if I just disappeared D E Blowing my back out, trying to hold my weight Looking for a doctor with a cure for a broke heart Seems I spent it all on a miracle just to watch it fall apart Now there's no room for ill-complaining, I know it's all just what it is Cherry-pick my best believers and send them off with a kiss Because there they go Watch them all wave goodbye Tell me how could you refuse to think it's a wonderful life? Two sheets to the wind all over again Down the bloodline Down the bloodline Down the bloodline
