[Verse 1]

D                         A      G
Mama's so strong, but her body's tired
        Bm                      Dm      G
But she jumps up to hug me when I come home
    D                          A     G
And Dad hates to smoke, but he chews tobacco
       Bm                    Dm     G
And he taught me to find God on my own
    D              A          G
And Kendall is no stranger to trouble
        Bm                       Dm    G
But her boys are gonna love that crazy soul
        D                           A     G
Oh, and Britney's still scared from after Banner
       Bm                       Dm       G
But if Andrew was here, he'd be proud of her


[Chorus]
          D               A
So, maybe love was always near
      Bm             G
Maybe love needs the fear
            D         A
Well, maybe love is a broken thing
      Bm             G
Maybe love needs the pain


[Verse 2]
     D                      A         G
So I chainsmoke the pack in Salt Lake City
         Bm                         F#m G
And your voice sounds the same when I'm alone
D                           A        G
I was drunk at the wheel in Norfolk, Virginia
        Bm              F#m         G
Oh, and I came to tears thinking of her
        D                    A         G
Oh, and darling, I know that I haven't told you
        Bm                   D        G
But you mean more to me than you must know
       D                          A        G
But my head's full of fear and my heart of sorrow
             Bm                   Dm    G
But when I'm patient enough, your voice echoes


[Chorus]
          D               A
So, maybe love was always near
      Bm             G
Maybe love needs the fear
      D               A
Well, maybe love is a broken thing
      Bm             G
Maybe love needs the pain


[Outro]
              D                     A
It's carrying you up, it's carrying you up
                 Bm         G
Don't let it go, I'm so far away
              D                     A
It's carrying you up, it's carrying you up
                 Bm         G
Don't let it go, I'm so far away
