to the [Bm] blue sky.
[C]
Bury me in that long last drop of [Em] hard rain.
Lead me where [Bm] there's stopped
time.
[D]
That's you to me on this shovel, that's digging [B] this grave.
Till I can waltz on a
moonbeam.
[C] Till I can find a way to turn old tears [G] into wine.
I'll hitch my ride to a daydream.
[D] You can't kiss the lips that love is leaving [C]
behind.
I ain't living [G] with the ghosts.
No
future living [C] in the past.
I've seen what haters [Em] don't know.
[C] Tomorrow [D] wasn't built to
[D] last.
I ain't living [C] with the ghosts.
How can I scream [Em] I'm scared to breathe?
I will
reach where [D] you gave the toast.
But we were firing gasoline.
I ain't living [C] with the
ghosts.
[G] I set my sail [F#] over wheat fields.
[C]
Where waves of amber let a new sun shine [Em] on my face.
I dropped a sword, [Bm] put down my shield.
[D]
I left your scars for the stars.
God [B] in my way, I
traded heaven for healing.
[C]
I must admit that I was reeling, now I'm feeling [N] just.

I [C] found the tree [Em] I cut the wood.
[C] Tomorrow wasn't [D] built
to last.
I ain't living with [C] the ghosts.
How [C] can I scream I'm scared to [Em] breathe?

[C] I saw a man watch his [D] feet in the church all in [C] water.
He
worked up to his knees.
From [Em] his arms to his [D] neck said I'm in over my head.
He [C] was crying
trying to get some relief.
Lord [Am] I'm just trying to get some relief.

I had this dream.
That
man [G] was me.
