G5  B5  E5    D5
[Verse 1]
G5Marry me to the blB5ue sky
C5Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
E5Meet me where they stop B5time
D5That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
B5Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
C5Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
G5I'll hitch my ride to a day drB5eam
D5Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving beC5hind
[Chorus]
I ain't living with the gG5host
No future living in the C5past
I've seen that hate has done to E5hop
Tomorrow wasn't built to D5last
I ain't living with the gC5host
How can I scream, I'm scared E5to breathe
I wrote each word, you gave the tD5oast
But we were fire and gasoline
I ain't living with the gC5host
[Verse 2]
G5I set my sails over wheat fB5ields
C5Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
E5I dropped the sword, put down my shB5ield
D5I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
B5I traded hurting for healing

I traded nightmares for dB5reaming
D5Go tell your shadows that I got out aC5live

[Intro]

G5 B5 E5 C5

G5 B5 E5 D5

[Verse 1]

G5 B5

Marry me to the blue sky

Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain

E5 B5

Meet me where they stop time

That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave

Till I can waltz on a moonbeam

Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine

G5 B5

I'll hitch my ride to a day dream

D5 C5

Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind

[Chorus]

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen that hate has done to hop

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word, you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

I ain't living with the ghost

[Verse 2]

G5 B5

I set my sails over wheat fields

Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face

E5 B5

I dropped the sword, put down my shield

I left your scars for the stars guiding my way

I traded hurting for healing

C5 G5

I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine

I traded nightmares for dreaming

D5 C5

Go tell your shadows that I got out alive

[Chorus]

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word, you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

I ain't living with the ghost

[Solo]

G5 C5 E5 D5 C5 E5 D5

[Bridge]

Last night I had this dream

Am D

I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water

He worked up to his knees

Em D

From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head

He was crying trying to get some relief

Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief

I had this dream

G C Em D

That man was me

[Chorus]

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word, you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

Now I ain't living with the ghost

[Outro]
