Heirloom Acordes

[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
G/B          Am         F               C
You try your hardest to leave the past alone.
G/B          Am         F               C
This crooked posture is all you've ever known.
G/B       Am             F         C
It is the consequence of living in between
G/B           Am             F            C
The weight of family and the pull of gravity.
 
[Chorus]
Am              G                       F
You are so much more than your father's son.
Am              G                   F
You are so much more than what I've become.
 
C
 
[Verse 2]
G/B    Am            F              C
Long before you were born there was light
G/B    Am                   F          C
Hidden deep in these young, unfamiliar eyes.
G/B       Am              F               C
A million choices, though little on their own,
G/B        Am              F                C
Become the heirloom of the heaviness you've known.
 
[Chorus]
Am              G                       F
You are so much more than your father's son.
Am              G                    F
You are so much more than what I've become,
Am   G     F
What I've become,
Am   G     F
What I've become.
 
[Bridge]
Am
 
Am            G/B
You pressed rewind
                   C
For the thousandth time
                   F
When the tapes wore through.
Am          G/B
So you memorized
                 C
Those unscripted lines,
                          F
Desperate for some kind of clue:
Am             G/B
When the scale tipped,
               C
When you inherited
                             F
A fight that you were born to lose.
Am            G/B
It's not your fault,
                  C
No, it's not your fault,
                         F
I put this heavy heart in you.
C/E                      F
I put this heavy heart in you.
 
C
 
[Verse 3]
G/B    Am        F                C
You remind me of who I could have been,
G/B        Am           F               C
Had I been stronger and braver way back then.
G/B       Am              F               C
A million choices, though little on their own,
G/B       Am              F                C
Became the heirloom of the heaviness we've known.
 
[Chorus]
Am              G                       F
You are so much more than your father's son.
Am              G                        F
You are so much more than the wars you've won.
Am              G                      F
You are so much more than your father's son.
Am              G                    F
You are so much more than what I've become.
(Repeat the run)
Am   G     F
What I've become
Am   G     F
What I've become
