Verse:
EmC
Who can say just why all this happened
EmGD
They?d been friends almost all of their of their lives
EmC
Sharing all that they had no matter the cost
GDEm
But one chose to be selfish this time
C
You see the other contracted a sickness
EmGD
All the doctors just threw up their hands
EmC
His life was ticking away but his friend just stood by
GDEm
Like a spectator up in the stands
EmC
What was crazy was he had the answer
EmGD
To remove all his brother?s disease
EmCG
But he folded his arms and talked of old times while his best friend
DEm
died without peace
Chorus:
GC
Well he?s keeping the cure
AmEm
So afraid that a little might spill
G
Well he?s sure glad he?s got it but he?s too busy to share
C Am7
and at least he won?t die like they will
AmCEm (Repeat Verse intro)
Well he?s keeping the cure... in his pocket
Verse:
EmC
You see he?d also been sick earlier
EmGD
To the sickness he?d become a slave
Em C
But one came to his aid with solutions in hand
GDEm
He was rescued from the sting of the grave
C
In the first month he?d told all his buddies
EmGD
Of the wonderful cure he had found
EmC
But it became routine and few shared his joy
G D Em
So his excitement made less of a sound
Em C
Well he realized more people were dying
EmGD
From the plague for which he had the cure
Em C
But he wasn?t a salesman, and they?d think he?d impose
GDEm
And they?d probably seen it before
(Chorus)
