Intro.: |(G)(D)|(Bm)(A)|(G)(D)|(Bm)(A)
(Verse 1)
We're in the (G)homestretch (D) of the (Bm)hard times (A)
We took a (G)hard left, (D) but we're (Bm)alright (A)
Yeah, (G) life (D)sure can try (Bm) to (A)put love through it, but
(G) We (D)built this right, (Bm) so nothing's ever gonna move it
(Chorus)
When the (D/F#)bones are good, (G) the rest don't matter
Yeah, the (A)paint could peel, (Bm) the glass could shatter
Let it (D/F#)rain (G) 'cause you and I remain the (A)same (Bm)
When there (D/F#)ain’t a crack (G) in the foundation
(A) Baby, I know (Bm)any storm we're facing
Will (D/F#)blow right over (G)while we stay put
The (A)house don't fall when the bones are good
Solo: |(G)(D)|(Bm)|(A)
(Verse 2)
Call it (G)dumb luck, (D) but baby, (Bm)you and I (A)
Can't even (G)mess it up, (D) although we (Bm)both try (A)
No, it (G) don't (D)always go (Bm) the (A)way we planned it
But the (G) wolves (D)came and went (Bm) and (A) we're still standing
(Chorus)
When the (D/F#)bones are good, (G) the rest don't matter
Yeah, the (A)paint could peel, (Bm) the glass could shatter
Let it (D/F#)rain (G) 'cause you and I remain the (A)same (Bm)
When there (D/F#)ain’t a crack (G) in the foundation
(A) Baby, I know (Bm)any storm we're facing
Will (D/F#)blow right over (G)while we stay put
The (A)house don't fall when my bones are good

(G)Bones are (D)good, (Bm)the rest, (A) the rest don't matter (Baby, it don't really matter)
