Bottom Line by Lilli Furfaro
Bottom Line
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
A
chin up, back straight
A
put on my father’s smile
A
big plans, big world
A E
he’ll listen if I can pretend
A
round two, no dice
N.C.
okay, I’ll step my game up
A
big boss? big deal
E
maybe he’ll listen to me then
[Chorus]
B
'cause what father doesn’t know won’t hurt him
A
and if you’ve got bridges to burn, you better burn ‘em
B A
‘cause if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
N.C. E E7
they sent me away
[Verse 2]
A
one, two, swing right
A
out on my father’s smile
A
big hit, cut left
A E E7
won’t see it coming if I grin
A
I’m like lightning, real fast
N.C.
and I cause a lot of static)
A
big shock, big mouth
A E
why can’t they tell it like it is?
[Chorus]
B
'cause they say I don’t care about the discipline
A
but only one of them can see that I’ve been listenin’
B A
and if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
N.C. E E7
so does a fist
[Verse 3]
A
new friends, new job
A
I get a bit suspicious
A
what do you want?
A
I better keep my guard up
E
be tough, be loud
E
that’s how you keep ‘em guessing
E
you don’t belong
N.C.
(no, that’s my father speaking)
[Bridge]
A
they think I’m strong
A
make me responsible for
A
playing both sides
A
I'm sniffing out corruption
B
I know firsthand
B
what makes a hypocrite
A
raised by that man
N.C. E E7
right in the thick of it
[Verse 4]
A
breathe in, breathe out
N.C.
I feel it in my body
N.C.
learning just how
N.C. E E7
to use my words before my hands
A
patience goes far
N.C.
especially when it comes to
N.C.
waiting so long
N.C. E E7
for friends that kind of understand
[Chorus]
B
that I may stun ‘em and I may bruise ‘em
A
but I’d rather lose myself than ever lose ‘em
B A
and if actions speak louder than words
bottom line —
N.C. E E7
we’re gonna be alright
