CAPO 1

G              Em
Shadows on the trees,
C    C/F   C    G
break my bones. 
G               Em
My heart on the breeze 
      C   C/F  C    G
sinks like a stone 

G              Em
I've been here before 
C   C/F  C    G
not with you. 
G          Em
I may be a liar 
    C  C/F C   G    
I'm one of the few. 

Chorus:
C                                 G
She triying to take cover on liquid high. 
C                                          D
Started to drink the water now the well is dry. 
Dm                                           G
Standing here holding up my hands to crooked skies.

Don't complain. 
G                 Em
You speak of your worries, 
      C  C/F  C  G
Don't mention my name. 

G        Em
I made a deal 
       C  C/F    C    G
with a preachers son. 
G             Em
to hand in my hours 
        C  C/F  C    G
when I'm on the run

The wind is gone
    C  C/F  C  G
but not out of place.

Read me a story. 
C   C/F   C  G
One from the past.

I'm headed for glory

but I know it wont last.
