Lori Mckenna - The Fixer Chords

[Intro]

D#m C# B G#
D#m C# B


[Verse 1]
F#                           C#
The Fixer comes home one night
B                            F#
Tinkers with the kitchen light
          D#m                        B
Tells his wife to find something to eat
                  G#m  F#
Kisses her cheek softly


[Verse 2]
                                     C#
"Are you cold," he says, feeling her hand
              B                    F#
Leaves ginger ale on the nightstand
      D#m                     B
She's too tired to take a sip
                                   F#
So The Fixer finds something to fix


[Chorus]
         D#m               B
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts
D#m                B
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs
D#m        C#      B
Transistor radios, scr*p metal
G#
Hand-me-down tools, one of everything
B
Old keys to unlock unknown things


[Verse 3]
                  F#                              C#
The Fighter says "Some things just can't be fixed"
             B                    F#
Touching the cross on her necklace
              D#m                    B
Reminding The Fixer that she still believes
                                     F#
He whispers, "Then ask for a miracle please"


[Verse 4]
                                C#
The Fighter is fighting so damn hard
              B                        F#
She sits on a chair out in the backyard
        D#m                      B
And the kids will come by later on
                                    F#
And they'll all pretend nothing is wrong


[Chorus]
          D#m               B
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts
D#m                B
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs
D#m        C#      B
Transistor radios, scr*p metal
G#m                 G#m
Hand-me-down tools, one of everything
           B                       D#m - C#
He's got old keys to unlock unknown things
        B      G#          D#m - C#
Unknown things,   unknown things
        B
Unknown things, unknown things


[Verse 5]
          F#                          C#
The Fixer washes the grease from his hands
              B                     F#
Turns off the light by the basement stairs
             D#m                       B
Kneels down, elbows on the bed next to her
      G#
And prays he can find a way
B                          D#m   C#
Prays he can find a way to fix her
   B     G#
To fix her
       D#m   C#
Oh, to fix her
