[Verse 1]
F5 A5
Marry me to the blue sky
A#5
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
D5 A5
Meet me where they stop time
C5
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
A5
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
A#5
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
F5 A5
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream
C5 A#5
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind
[Chorus]
F5
I ain't living with the ghost
A#5
No future living in the past
D5
I've seen that hate has done to hop
C5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
A#5
I ain't living with the ghost
D5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
C5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
A#5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Verse 2]
F5 A5
I set my sails over wheat fields
A#5
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
D5 A5
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
C5
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
A5
I traded hurting for healing
A#5 F5
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine
A5
I traded nightmares for dreaming
C5 A#5
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive
[Chorus]
F5
I ain't living with the ghost
A#5
No future living in the past
D5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
C5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
A#5
I ain't living with the ghost
D5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
C5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
A#5
I ain't living with the ghost

[Bridge]
A#5
Last night I had this dream
Gm C
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
A#
He worked up to his knees
Dm C
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head
A#
He was crying trying to get some relief
Gm
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief
A#
I had this dream
F A# Dm C
That man was me
[Chorus]
F5
I ain't living with the ghost
A#5
No future living in the past
D5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
C5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
A#5
I ain't living with the ghost
D5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
C5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
A#5
Now I ain't living with the ghost
