[VERSE 1]
F Dm Bb F c
I was alone and trawling through the valley for peace
F Dm Bb F c
When there, through the teardrops hanging in the doorway, I freeze
Bb F C Bb C
My kind of people, already leaning into one another
F Dm Bb F c
Like fallen trees
[VERSE 2]
F Dm Bb F c
Why am I always drawn to the trough on my knees?
F Dm Bb F c
Broken in a way that none of us can fathom or ease
Bb F C Bb C
My kind of people, lying around in the wreckage of the laughter
F
Like fallen trees
[BRIDGE]
Dm Dm7/C G
And nothing’s gonna change the way we deal
Bb G C Gm/A Dm C
With the ruins of our feelings by pushing on the ceiling
[VERSE 3]
F Dm Bb F c
So as I collapse into another huddle, I see
F Dm Bb F c
That no one is holding any other brother but me
Bb F C Bb C
My kind of people, they can take the weight of any other
F Dm Bb c F
Like fallen trees
