	  		Intro: G5  Bm  Em  C5 
        G5  Bm  Em  D5 
  
  
Verse 1:
G5                Bm 
Marry me to the blue sky 
C5 
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain 
Em                      Bm 
Meet me where they stop time 
D5 
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave 
Bm 
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam 
C5 
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine 
G5                            Bm 
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream 
D5                                           C5 
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind 
  
 
 
                         G5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                        C5 
No future living in the past 
                                Em 
I've seen that hate has done to hop 
                         D5 
Tomorrow wasn't built to last 
                         C5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                            Em 
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe 
                                 D5 
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline 
                         C5 
I ain't living with the ghost 

  
 
Verse 2:
 
G5                         Bm 
I set my sails over wheat fields 
C5 
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face 
Em                                 Bm 
I dropped the sword, put down my shield 
D5 
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way 
Bm 
I traded hurting for healing 
C5                                                   G5 
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine 
                         Bm 
I traded nightmares for dreaming
D5                                   C5 
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive 
  
  
                         G5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                        C5 
No future living in the past 
                                Em 
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope 
                         D5 
Tomorrow wasn't built to last 
                         C5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                            Em 
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe 
                                 D5 
I wrote each word, you gave the toast 
But we were fire and gasoline 
                         C5 
I ain't living with the ghost

Last night I had this dream 
        Am                         D 
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water 
    C 
He worked up to his knees 
         Em                        D 
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head 
         C 
He was crying trying to get some relief 
          Am 
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief 
             C 
I had this dream 
              G  C  Em  D 
That man was me 
  
  
                         G5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                        C5 
No future living in the past 
                                Em 
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope 
                         D5 
Tomorrow wasn't built to last 
                         C5 
I ain't living with the ghost 
                            Em 
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe 
                                 D5 
I wrote each word, you gave the toast 
But we were fire and gasoline 
                             C5 
Now I ain't living with the ghost
