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

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