Dying On The Vine Chords

   
           Em       D                 Em
I've been chasing ghosts and I don't like it
        Cmaj7                  D                G       (B)
I wish someone would show me where to draw the line
         Em       D                     Em
I'd lay down my sword if you would take it
          Am                            B      (Am/F#)
And tell everyone back home I'm doing fine


       Em       D           Em
I was with you down in Acapulco
         Cmaj7    D        G       (B)
Trading clothing for some wine
Em                D          Em
Smelling like an old adobe woman
               Am                         B      (Am/F#)
Or a William Burroughs playing for lost time


        G                 Em
I was thinking about my mother
        G                    Em
I was thinking about what's mine
       Am        D           G            (Em)
I was living my life like a Hollywood
           Am            B
But I was dying on the vine

           Em            D                Em
Who could sleep through all that noisy chatter
     Cmaj7           D              G      (B)
The troops the celebrations in the sun
        Em               D                 Em
The authorities say my papers are all in order
          Am                           B      (Am/F#)
And if I wasn't such a coward I would run


Em                D              Em
Meet me when all the shooting's over
Cmaj7       D                 G       (B)
Meet me on the other side of town
Em                           D                      Em
Yes you can bring all your friends along for protection
       Am                                B
It's always nice to have them hanging around


        G                 Em
I was thinking about my mother
        G                    Em
I was thinking about what's mine
       Am        D           G            (Em)
I was living my life like a Hollywood
           Am            B
But I was dying on the vine
