[Intro] C G C G [Verse 1] C G When I picture my hometown D There’s a bronze spray-tanned statue of you C G And a plaque underneath it C That threatens to push me down
G
The stairs, at our school C G D And it was always the same searing pain D But I dreamed that one day,
I could say [Chorus] All that time you were throwin’ punches,
I was buildin’ somethin’ D And I can’t forgive
the way you made me feel G C Screamed “F**k you, Aimee” to the night sky,
D
As the blood was gushin’ D But I can’t forget the way you made me heal C G C G
[Verse 2] C G And it wasn’t a fair fight,
D
Or a clean kill D Each time that Aimee stomped
Across my gravе C G And then she wrote hеadlines C In the local paper, laughing at each
G
Baby step I’d take C G D And it was always the same searing pain D But I prayed that one day, I could say [Chorus] G C All that time you were throwin’ punches,
D
I was buildin’ somethin’ D And I couldn’t wait to show you it was real G C Screamed “F**k you, Aimee” to the night sky,
D
As the blood was gushin’ D But I can’t forget the way
You made me heal G C Everyone knows that my mother is a
D
Saintly woman D But she used to say she wished
That you were dead G C I push each boulder up the hill D Your words are still just ringing
In my head, ringing in my head [Bridge] Em I wrote a thousand songs
Am
That you find uncool G D I built a legacy which you can’t undo Em But when I count the scars,
Am
There’s a moment of truth G That there wouldn’t be this,
D C G C G
If there hadn’t been you [Verse 3] C G And maybe you’ve reframed it D And in your mind you never beat my
Spirit black and blue C G I don’t think you’ve changed much C And so I changed your name,
G
And any real defining clues C G And one day, your kid comes home singin’ D A song that only us two is
Gonna know is about you, ’cause— [Chorus] G All that time you were throwin’
C D
Punches, it was all for nothin’ And our town, it looks so small,
From way up here G Screamed “Thank you, Aimee” to the
C D
Night sky, and the stars are stunnin’ 'Cause I can’t forget the way
You made me heal G C Everyone knows that my mother is a
D
Saintly woman But she used to say she wished
That you were dead G C So I pushed each boulder up the hill D Your words were still just ringing
In my head, ringing in my head [Outro] C G Thank you, Aimee C G Thank you, Aimee C G D
