Capo on 6th fret
	        

Intro: C Am F G 

Verse: 
                        C                             Am 
Well we air clear blue aching skies in the morning after, 
                 F                       G 
and memories of gold on the run, flying around, 
                    C                       Am 
was there a drunken cloud over someone just empty, 
                  F                           G 
a vision of a mountain you say, so where did it go? 

Bridge:
 
       G7          Am              F             G 
It was light and i held it like a child to be saved 
       G7                   Am              F 
from the fires and from the falling down satellites 
           G 
but still wondering 

C F C Am 'Damn you always treat me like a stranger, mountain Em Am F G though you've seen the shadow between the city and what is mine, C F C Am and fallen kids all rising men among their logs, but leavers, Em Am F G suddenly darker in their eyes and their broken smiles, G C it's only what these kids will haul around.'
C Am F G Verse: C Am Well there's a lot of sullen land for hungry feed of answers, F G and medicine for balancing things, like seeing your ghosts, C Am So thank god we're bright, said the lanterns brother, F G cause I don't know a thing about boats or the land I see Bridge: G7 Am F G It was day and I stood there once again climbing quick G7 Am F G when I knew you were the one throwing dying stars on our gathering but he said
C F C Am 'Damn you always treat me like a mountain, stranger Em Am F G though I have never seen your shadows or fading lights, C F C Am I'm just a rock that you'll be picking up through all your ages, Em Am F G always believing there's a canyon for every blind, G C it's only what these kids will haul around.' C Am F G till you get bored
