Plates of Brass

Intro

Oh-oh

Yeah-eah

Chorus

I'm chasing something worth the climb

I'm chasing something worth the climb

Metal and memory hold the line

Brass in my hands and I'm alive

Verse 1

Morning broke and I packed light

Father called me out before the sun could rise

Every word he spoke I tucked away

Somewhere in the space behind my eyes

Pre-Chorus

So I go

Where the road bends low

Chorus

I'm chasing something worth the climb

I'm chasing something worth the climb

Metal and memory hold the line

Brass in my hands and I'm alive

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Hands up high

Oh-oh oh-oh

We're alive

Verse 2

Engraved in plates I could not read

A genealogy of where I came from

Ancient letters older than my name

Still the blood remembers what I've become

Pre-Chorus

So I stand

With an open hand

Chorus

I'm chasing something worth the climb

I'm chasing something worth the climb

Metal and memory hold the line

Brass in my hands and I'm alive

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Hands up high

Oh-oh oh-oh

We're alive

Bridge

Weathered pages wait for no one

Weathered pages never sleep

Every line a road I'll walk down

Every line a promise I can keep

Breakdown

Bring it back bring it back

Bring it back to me

Bring it back bring it back

All the history

Chorus

I'm chasing something worth the climb

I'm chasing something worth the climb

Metal and memory hold the line

Brass in my hands and I'm alive

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Hands up high

Oh-oh oh-oh

We're alive
