Album: Recoil (2016)
[Verse 1]
C
Went to a funeral and a baptism on the same day
Am
felt that God was real in both the good and the bad ways
F C G
then I started to think of you again
C
And it's funny how we always kept the track of time
Am
when every minute I had with you was silver-lined
F
though sickness had you pinned in, I'll see you again and
G
we'll be riding high on, streets of gold, so strong
[Chorus]
C
I wanna take a ride through the Indigo
Am F
over the sunset in Mexico, open my eyes, no more goodbyes
G
I still see you
C
Come on old friend, take my hand
Am F
show me the ropes around the bend, open my eyes, no more goodbyes
G C
I still see you
[Verse 2]
C
I watched you go from mighty fine to flatline
Am
and I held back tears as your mother gently lost her mind
F
and after she was long gone, I sat with you to hold on
G
to one more memory with you, til our next rendezvous
[Chorus]
C
I wanna take a ride through the Indigo
Am F
over the sunset in Mexico, open my eyes, no more goodbyes
G
I still see you
C
Come on old friend, take my hand
Am F
show me the ropes around the bend, open my eyes, no more goodbyes
G
I still see you
[Bridge]
F G
Now you're free
C F
and lighting fires inside of me
F G
hear these cries
C F
and hold me from the other side
[Chorus]
C
Went to a funeral and a baptism on the same day
Am
felt that God was real in both the good and the bad ways
C
on the good and the bad days
[Outro]
C Am
I wanna take a ride through the Indigo
F G
ooooh oh oh
C
through the Indigo
Am F G
ooooh oh oh
C
through the Indigo
