[Intro]
C#m B A F#
C#m B A
[Verse 1]
E B
The Fixer comes home one night
A E
Tinkers with the kitchen light
C#m A
Tells his wife to find something to eat
A E
Kisses her cheek softly
[Verse 2]
E B
"Are you cold," he says, feeling her hand
A E
Leaves ginger ale on the nightstand
C#m A
She's too tired to take a sip
A E
So The Fixer finds something to fix
[Chorus]
C#m A
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts
C#m A
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs
C#m B A
Transistor radios, scrap metal
F#
Hand-me-down tools, one of everything
A
Old keys to unlock unknown things
[Verse 3]
E B
The Fighter says "Some things just can't be fixed"
A E
Touching the cross on her necklace
C#m A
Reminding The Fixer that she still believes
E
He whispers, "Then ask for a miracle please"
[Verse 4]
E B
The Fighter is fighting so damn hard
A E
She sits on a chair out in the backyard
C#m A
And the kids will come by later on
A E
And they'll all pretend nothing is wrong
[Chorus]
C#m A
He's got bicycle tires and lawnmower parts
C#m A
Miles of wires and kitchen drawer knobs
C#m B A
Transistor radios, scrap metal
F#m F#m
Hand-me-down tools, one of everything
A C#m - B
He's got old keys to unlock unknown things
[Bridge]
A F# C#m - B
Unknown things, unknown things
A
Unknown things, unknown things
[Verse 5]
E B
The Fixer washes the grease from his hands
A E
Turns off the light by the basement stairs
C#m A
Kneels down, elbows on the bed next to her
F#
And prays he can find a way
A A C#m B
Prays he can find a way... to fix her
[Outro]
A F#
To fix her
C#m B
Oh, to fix her
A
