Blankets Lyrics
This is a cracking track from Ruarri Joseph's debut album,
'Tales of Grime and Grit'. It's a great song for beginners.
Chords used:-
Intro - Em
Verse:
My friends say I've got to stay behind,'cause they've seen this kind,
Just like they all told me so.
I'll begin to piece it all in one, just another song,
Just another pipe dream for the child who hung his head.
Chorus:
It was not my fault, it was not my day,
But it made me strong, it made me wait for love.
And I found so much, and I've paid my debts,
For the kindness I was shown to use as my own.
Verse:
All my tears and comforts led the way, in a final play,
That had scenes of heroes making up for loss.
And his story cost, paper melted down.
Made of blankets for the child who ran away.
Bridge:
Sip the same depressing fuel
Make and break your every rule.
And if the laughter is all night,
At least it's helping me to write.
When everything is overboard
The perfect crew you can't afford,
There is no truth without unjust
And in the music I could trust.
Chorus:
It was not my fault, it was not my day,
Oh, but it made me strong, it made me wait for love.
And I found so much, and I've paid my debts,
For the kindness I was shown to use as my own.
