intro: Em C Em C Em C D   2X 
 
 
Verse: 
Em            C          Em         C            Em 
You blow the candle out, you take a shovel to my head 
          C            D 
Hey I appreciate that sound 
Em           C          Em          C                Em 
A true tone resonating, so now I'm less alive than dead 
          C             D  
And maybe I won't hang around   tonight 
 
Chorus       G       C     F       Em 
        Cause I'm already dying, already flying 
      F               Em               D 
        Seems like I'm flying toward the sun 
               G        C     F       Em 
        Yes I'm already dying, already flying 
        F               Em               D 
        In my dreams I'm flying toward the sun   
 
Verse 2: 
Em          C                 Em       C           Em   
I'm flying through the heavens a tabernacle to my soul 
             C             D 
You know I'd take you if I could 
Em          C               Em           C             Em 
No I can't save your sorry soul I only want to be the one  
              C                  D 
To kiss your spirit from face to foot 
 
Chorus 
 
Verse 3 
Em           C      Em          C            Em      
You put the fire out you take a shovel to my head 
        C             D  
hey I appreciate that sound 
Em           C        Em          C               Em   
A true tone resonating so now I'm less alive than dead 
         C                    D 
Speckled birds of prey coming down
