C
I went down to the liquor store
Cmaj9/B
And bought some more liquor
Am F
I drank myself to sleep in a starry night
C
Hoping that I would drown
Cmaj9/B
In all the ocean's sound
Am F
I swam into it's depths with my eyes closed tight
G F Cmaj9/B C
Hoping I would see the light
C
Well I built a fire with both my hands
Cmaj9/B
And watched it burn the land
Am
I planted seeds in ashes
F
Just to see if it would grown again
C
Took a train to outer space
Cmaj9/B
To see if I could find a place
Am F
Where I could watch the sweet sun burn the scars off my face
G F Cmaj9/B C
Hoping I would see the light
F C G Am (then slide to) Em7/D
F C G Am
F
Well the rain came down without a sound
C
And flowers sprouted from the ground
G Am
How can I not speak of God when all I see is this mirage
F
We pick up guns and we kill our own
C
Oh this road leads so far from home
G
I pray to the angel of fire
Am
To burn this mess until it dies
F
At the top of the hill
At the feet of the tree
C
I found the truth in an apple seed
G
Who would've known that when it had grown
Am
I could see all the stars and all the cosmos
F
Some say I'm sick and some call me mad
C
They say I've lost all that I've had
G
True I am mad for the light, for the spark
Am
That resides in the deepest depths of my heart
