Hammers And Strings A Lullaby

      G               C  Em         C                 G C Em
These hammers and strings      Been following me around
        G              C        Em             C        G      C           Em
From a box filled garage To the dark punk rock clubs Of 1000 American towns
       G                 C
And my friend calls me up,
          Em                D         G                 C
he says, "how have you been?" I say, "dear I've been well,
         Em            D         G                C
Yeah the money's coming   But I miss you like hell.
        Em             D      G                C Em D
I still hear you in this old piano, oh yeah."

           G         Cadd9         Em          D
She says, "Andy, I know that we don't talk as much
        G              Cadd9       Em                 D
But I still hear your ghost in these   old punk rock clubs
        G             Cadd9        Em            D
Come on, write me a song, give me something to trust
      G           Cadd9          D                       C
Just promise you won't  let it be, just the keys that you    touch."

                        G                                D
Give me something to believe in, a breath from the breathing
                    Em                              C
So write it down, I don't think that I'll close my eyes
                         G                                D
'Cause lately I'm not dreaming, so what's the point in sleeping?
                   Em                         C
It's just that at night, I've got nowhere to hide
                       G C Em           G C Em
So I write you a lullaby        A lullaby

      G               C  Em         C                 G C Em
These hammers and strings      Been following me around

Behind passenger vans Through the snow, dirt, and sands Of 1000 American towns.
       G                 C
And my friend calls me up
          Em          D                G           C
With her heart heavy still She says, "Andy, the doctors
      Em            D            G               C
Prescribed me the pills. But I know I'm not crazy.
   Em           D        G         C      D              C
I just lost my will. So why am I, why am I taking them still?"

                        G                                D
Give me something to believe in, a breath from the breathing
                    Em                              C
