Intro:
G …D….C…D play 2x
G
That ain’t a parachute
D
That ain’t a rip cord
C D
That ain’t a body of water
We’re headed for
G D
There’s so little time left
C
So much to be done
D G
Even you are gonna need someone
That ain’t a trick of light
Or the morning haze
Coming in from the lake
Getting into your eyes
It’s the invisible breath
Of a storm on the rise
That I feel whenever you arrive
C C/b C/d D
Now I may not be quick
Maybe never was
C C/b C/d D
But tell me what the hell it is
G
That you’ve become
(chorus)
G D
Baby if you never got sick
C D
I wouldn’t get to hold you
G D
Baby if you never got sick
C D
I would never get to hold you
G
This ain’t a righteous love
Even a good one
These ain’t the kinds of returns
I was thinking of
I’m unbearable now
You ain’t seen nothing yet
You’ll see me dead
Before you see me quit
That ain’t a jug of wine
That you’ve been drinking from
Now lay back now baby
Let your fever come
I will you bury you in
Just to dig you out
I haven’t a use
For being proud
The deeper the slide
The higher the rise
But don’t be disapointed
How I usin’ mine
(repeat chorus)
C/d(2) D5
I think I made a mistake
C/d(2) D5
I pushed when you said to wait
G
But I never get to hold you
I follow you deep into a barren field
There was someone you were running from
When I need to sleep
That’s when you disappeared
But I did get the impossible done
Now I always knkew
There was God inside you
I just never did learn which one
(repeat chorus)
