[Verse 1]
D5 F#5
Marry me to the blue sky
G5
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
B5 F#5
Meet me where they stop time
A5
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
F#5
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
G5
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
D5 F#5
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream
A5 G5
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind
[Chorus]
D5
I ain't living with the ghost
G5
No future living in the past
B5
I've seen that hate has done to hop
A5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
G5
I ain't living with the ghost
B5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
A5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
G5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Verse 2]
D5 F#5
I set my sails over wheat fields
G5
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
B5 F#5
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
A5
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
F#5
I traded hurting for healing
G5 D5
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine
F#5
I traded nightmares for dreaming
A5 G5
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive
[Chorus]
D5
I ain't living with the ghost
G5
No future living in the past
B5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
A5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
G5
I ain't living with the ghost
B5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
A5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
G5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Solo]

[Bridge]
G5
Last night I had this dream
Em A
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
G
He worked up to his knees
Bm A
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head
G
He was crying trying to get some relief
Em
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief
G
I had this dream
D G Bm A
That man was me
[Chorus]
D5
I ain't living with the ghost
G5
No future living in the past
B5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
A5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
G5
I ain't living with the ghost
B5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
A5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
G5
Now I ain't living with the ghost
