An Anthem For The Broken Chords & Lyrics - Matthew Ryan

[VERSE 1]

An [D]anthem for the ones who hurt
Who b[Bm]roke their fists on dreams and dirt
Who c[G]limbed the hills and found the sea
Who [Bm]saw the tops of h[A]ome and tree
Who n[D]ever left their hearts in scars
Who c[Bm]aught the fire in the stars
Who h[G]eld their kids when they were scared
Who f[Bm]ound a way from h[A]ere to there [D] [A] [Bm] [G] [A]

[VERSE 2]

An a[D]nthem for the real reward
The s[Bm]ometimes broke and bent before
Where h[G]ope is lost and winter birds
Float f[Bm]rom the wires when s[A]hots are heard
An a[D]nthem for my mother's arms
The b[Bm]ravest walk, the big alarm
The b[G]oxers, cops and soldiers too
The o[Bm]nes who need no g[A]ratitude
[D] ...[A] ..We won't quit [Bm] [G] [A]

[VERSE 3]

An a[D]nthem for the brotherhood
The l[Bm]ight in the dark and the lean for good
The k[G]nowing not which way to go
But h[Bm]ere but for the grace of the unk[A]nown I know
A d[D]ollar's not a peace nor end
I'd [Bm]do it all and all again
An [G]anthem for the broken hearts
That [Bm]made it worlds from w[A]here they'd start [D]
