Biography:
On the surface, 22-year-old Florida native Matt Hires seems to be the epitome of the sunshine state: bare-footed, artistic, and coolly easy-going. But there’s a lot more to him than meets the eye. As a child, Matt was introduced to different musical genres by his father. It was Matt’s father that passed along his old, handmade acoustic guitar from 1977 to Matt when he was sixteen years old - the same guitar that Matt uses today. A homeschooler, Matt taught himself to play the guitar.

[Intro]
Em G D x2
[Verse 1]
Em G
I was born in a ghost town
C G
Chains rattling, suffocating
Em G
I was born in a ghost town where they don’t
C G
Raise the dead
[Verse 2]
Em G
Somewhere in Minnesota
C G
Snow covered in grey, light breaking
Em G
In the streets of the city where they don’t
C G
Raise the dead
[Riff 1]
[Chorus]
Em C G
So take all that’s left of my love
D
And give my body to the river
Em C G
Take all that’s left of my love
D
And take my body to the river
Em G D x2
[Verse 3]
Em G
Give me something to lean on
C G
Give me something to hold my head up
Em G
Get me out of the cycle
C G
That’s dirtied down in disgust
[Riff 1]
[Verse 4]
Em G
But maybe I’m just a patsy
C G
Maybe the whole damn thing’s a set up
Em G
‘Cause if there's not starting over
C G
All we already dust?
[Riff 1]
[Chorus]
Em C G
So take all that’s left of my love
D
And give my body to the river
Em C G
Take all that’s left of my love
D
And take my body to the river
[Bridge]
G
Watching over me
Em
Watching over me
Am
I’m going under and it’s
C
Taking hold of me
[Instrumental]
Em G
Oh ohhh
C D
Ooh oh oh
Em G
Oh ohhh
C D
Ooh oh oh
[Verse 5]
Em G
It was only a glimmer
C G
Flashing over a black horizon
Em G
It was only a glimmer
C G
But it could raise the dead
[Chorus]
Em C G
So take all that’s left of my love
D
(And give my body to the river)
Em C G
Take all that’s left of my love
D
(And take my body to the river)
[Chorus]
Em C G
So take all that’s left of my love
D
(And give my body to the river)
Em C G
Take all that’s left of my love
D G
And take my body black river
