[Verse 1]
B5 D#5
Marry me to the blue sky
E5
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
G#5 D#5
Meet me where they stop time
F#5
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
D#5
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
E5
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
B5 D#5
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream
F#5 E5
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind
[Chorus]
B5
I ain't living with the ghost
E5
No future living in the past
G#5
I've seen that hate has done to hop
F#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
E5
I ain't living with the ghost
G#5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
F#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
E5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Verse 2]
B5 D#5
I set my sails over wheat fields
E5
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
G#5 D#5
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
F#5
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
D#5
I traded hurting for healing
E5 B5
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine
D#5
I traded nightmares for dreaming
F#5 E5
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive
[Chorus]
B5
I ain't living with the ghost
E5
No future living in the past
G#5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
F#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
E5
I ain't living with the ghost
G#5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
F#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
E5
I ain't living with the ghost
[Solo]

[Bridge]
E5
Last night I had this dream
C#m F#
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
E
He worked up to his knees
G#m F#
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head
E
He was crying trying to get some relief
C#m
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief
E
I had this dream
B E G#m F#
That man was me
[Chorus]
B5
I ain't living with the ghost
E5
No future living in the past
G#5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
F#5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
E5
I ain't living with the ghost
G#5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
F#5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
E5
Now I ain't living with the ghost
