(ver. 1)
The Blow
Chords used: Am, F, F

..Verse..
F                       Am
Some philosophies fuel a belief in the self,
F                       Am
constructed to keep one's goods on one's own shelf.
F                        Am
Built well you're a strong letter I,
F                        Am
with your feet on the ground and your head to the sky.
F                   Am
Now and then you can bend,
              F          Am     
it's okay to lean over, lean over my way.
  F                             Am
You fear that you can't do it all,
             F
and you're riiiight.
                          Am
Even  day takes relief every day
            F                  Am


..Chorus..
           Am             F
When you're holding me
     F                 F
we make a pair of parentheses.
      Am                 F
There's plenty of space to encase
                   F
whatever weird way my mind goes,
                 F
I know I'll be safe in these arms. (x2)

 
..Bridge..
                   F                F
If something in the deli aisle makes you cry
    Am                         F
of course I'll put my arm around you
                   F
and I'll walk you outside,
                  F
through the sliding doors,
              F
why would I mind? (x2)


              Am                   F
You're not a baby if you feel the world.
              Am                     F                 F
All of the babies can feel the world. That's why they cry.


..Chorus..
           Am             F
And when you're holding me
     F                 F
we make a pair of parentheses.
      Am                 F
There's plenty space to encase
                   F
whatever weird way my mind goes,
                 F
I know I'll be safe in these arms. (x2)


..Bridge..
                   F                F
If something in the deli aisle makes you cry
    Am                         F
you know I'll put my arm around you
                   F
and I'll walk you outside,
                  F
through the sliding doors,
              F
why would I mind? 

              Am                     F                 F
All of the babies can feel the world. That's why they cry.



..Chorus..
           Am             F
And when you're holding me
     F                 F
we make a pair of parentheses.
      Am                 F
There's plenty space to encase
                   F
whatever weird way my mind goes,
                 F
I know I'll be safe in these arms. (x2)
