BLESSED AND BLISTERED

This is a song for my brother

Left me a long time ago

I wish his story had been another

Oh, he could’ve had my soul

And this is a song for your sister

Never had a chance to grow old

Lived her life, both blessed, and blistered

Oh, she could’ve had my soul

Now not a day goes by

That I don’t wonder why

Good people have to die

And this bitter pill

Leaves me bitter still

And I guess I always will

And it makes me wonder

How my own story ends

Will I be surrounded by my friends

Or will I fall right where I stand

Will you find this guitar in my hands?

Oh it hurts so much, I thought you should know

Oh, you could’ve had my soul.

Oh, you could’ve had my soul.
