[Verse 1]
F
When I heard, it occurred to me like a
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
break in the ice
F
That this wouldn't work
F
That's the day I learned to run for my
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
life
F
Guarding the door was every single love
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
that's ever lost
F
I wept in their arms
They said, "Man, we've been there
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
before."
F
And then I think
That life's been as good as it's been a
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
bastard
F
I'm not damaged, just discouraged
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
F# little tired, that's all
[Chorus]
F A# F
Darkness has a way of robbing me
A#
But love is love is love
F
And that changes things
[Verse 2]
F
I've been an addict for most of my life
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
To both naked women and fighting the good fight
F
I've been impaired for far too many nights
C
To look in the mirror and hope for a wife
F
If I keep on it won't get easier
C
But it's the only choice I've got
F
I am not damaged, just discouraged
F/G F/A F/A# C/E
I'm human, and that's all
[Chorus]
F A# F
Darkness has a way of robbing me
A#
But love is love is love
F
And that changes things
A#
Love is love is love
F
And that changes things
[Verse 3]
A# Dm F C
When who I've become is tearing me up
A#
I'm reminded
A# Dm F C
Affection exceeds the depth of my grief
A#
I'm reminded
A#
That no one ever thinks themselves a

Brother, you can hang around with me
