[Intro]
D Dsus4 A G x2
[Verse 1]
D Dsus4 D A G
I’m awake and I’m crazy, in the past I was doomed
D Dsus4 D A G
And I can’t think of anything to describe what I do
D5 Dmaj7no3 Dsus2
It’s just the last breath, catching the next breath I suppose
D Dsus4 D A G
My heart is aimless, this much I know
[Interlude]
D Dsus4 A G
[Verse 2]
D Dsus4 D A G
They gave me this virgin guitar, you ain’t got no songs
D Dsus4 D A G
And I’ve no one to sing to, but I’ll keep pressing on
D5 Dmaj7no3 Dsus2
I ain’t your first choice, you ain’t my first choice, I know
D Dsus4 D A G
But I’ll be your lone voice, my darkness you'll absorb
[Interlude]
D Dsus4 A G x2
[Verse 3]
D Dsus4 D A G
The water is deep, child, and the river is long
D Dsus4 D A G
And I’ll lay my head here, but I won’t call it home
D5 Dmaj7no3 Dsus2
You wanna journey, I’m on a journey you know
D Dsus4 D A G
With no destination, we’re on our own, yeah!
[Interlude]
D Dsus4 A G x2
[Verse 4]
D Dsus4 D A G
Oh why do I worry, I’m supposed to be lost
D Dsus4 D A G
Like some floating ember, at a brand new Pentecost
D5 Dmaj7no3 Dsus2
We need the bad things, to make the good things, I know
D Dsus4 D A G
I hear them singing, no rain, no rose
[Outro]
D Dsus4 A G x4 (slow and hold last G chord of the song)
