C G F C
Once I was dug up I was sinking
G F
I was longing to be saved
C G
I lapped up to the bay bar
F G F
And I saw her bobbing like a wave
Dm F
And I slowed down
C G F C
Just six months this summer since I've known her
G F
That she's been away
C G F C G F
Dm
And sometimes I still answer to the gone ghosts that only suckers make
F G Dm F C G F C G F
Slow down and hold on hold on
C G F C
Even my heroes are almost gone
G F
Almost folding from the flame
C G
But how low how can your fuse glow
F C G F Dm F G F Dm F
And warm you until your torch begins to fade
C G F C
I dreamed of a couple dancing close and drunk
G F
In the spray of lights they made
C G
And once I was dug up
F C G F Dm F G
I was sinking but now I'm longing to be saved
