[Verse 1]
G#5 C5
Marry me to the blue sky
C#5
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
F5 C5
Meet me where they stop time
D#5
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
C5
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
C#5
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
G#5 C5
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream
D#5 C#5
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind
[Chorus]
G#5
I ain't living with the ghost
C#5
No future living in the past
F5
I've seen that hate has done to hop
D#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
C#5
I ain't living with the ghost
F5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
D#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
C#5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Verse 2]
G#5 C5
I set my sails over wheat fields
C#5
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
F5 C5
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
D#5
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
C5
I traded hurting for healing
C#5 G#5
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine
C5
I traded nightmares for dreaming
D#5 C#5
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive
[Chorus]
G#5
I ain't living with the ghost
C#5
No future living in the past
F5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
D#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
C#5
I ain't living with the ghost
F5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
D#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
C#5
I ain't living with the ghost

[Bridge]
C#5
Last night I had this dream
A#m D#
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
C#
He worked up to his knees
Fm D#
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head
C#
He was crying trying to get some relief
A#m
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief
C#
I had this dream
G# C# Fm D#
That man was me
[Chorus]
G#5
I ain't living with the ghost
C#5
No future living in the past
F5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
D#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
C#5
I ain't living with the ghost
F5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
D#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
C#5
Now I ain't living with the ghost
