G Cadd9 He said, You mean my physical or mental health? G He held up his hand and said, It doesn't matter Am7 I'm just thankful that you care D/F# A lot of people pass me by D G Cadd9 G Most of them completely unaware [Chorus] Cadd9 You can't see my future Am7 G Cadd9 Know my past or feel the gravel in my shoes G I don't compare my suffering Em D/F# We're all just different shades of black and blue Cadd9 I've thought myself unworthy Am7 Em Cadd9 Been a shadow, felt my sanity was lost G D/F# But I somehow found the courage and the strength G Cadd9 G D/F# To keep me working on these Knots. [Verse] G C/G He looked down at the filament G Am7 Then held it up and asked what I could see D/F# There's memories that hurt so much in there G Cadd9 My brain has hidden them from me G I thought of cutting bait, but in my mind Am7 It was a coward's way to go D I gave up cigarettes and pills and booze G Cadd9 G To keep from killing myself slow. [Chorus] Cadd9 You can't see my future Am7 G Cadd9 Know my past or feel the gravel in my shoes G I don't compare my suffering Em D/F# We're all just different shades of black and blue Cadd9 I've thought myself unworthy Am7 Em Cadd9 Been a shadow, felt my sanity was lost G D/F# But I found the strength and courage and the grace G Cadd9 G To keep me working on these Knots. [Break] D/F# Em Cadd9 G Sometimes one unravels and reveals me to myself. D/F# Em Cadd9 D Sometimes I can manage running headlong into hell. Cadd9 D Cadd9 Other times Not so much. [Verse] G Cadd9 G He didn't want my money or my pity. Am He was happy just to talk D/F# D So we talked a little more of peace and war G Cadd9 Before I went on with my walk G My handshake couldn't thank him for his service, Am7 But I think he knew my mind D/F# We saw ourselves a little clearer G C/G G In a mirror made of hope and fishing line. [Chorus] Cadd9 You can't see my future Am7 G Cadd9 Know my past or feel the gravel in my shoes G I don't compare my suffering Em D/F# We're all just different shades of black and blue Cadd9 I've thought myself unworthy Am Em Cadd9 Been a shadow, felt my sanity was lost G D/F# But I found the strength and courage and the grace G Cadd9 G To keep me working on these Knots. [Outro] D G Cadd9 G And I'm working on these Knots.
