F# B
Close your eyes and you draw one more day to a close
A
You choose to be alone
B F#
You float through your life as a ghost
F#
And everything heals given time
B
And everything dies given time
A B F#
And the scars run together, mixing the nerves with the blood
B F#
And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
B F#
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
A
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
B C# F#
And everything that's golden and green goes to hell

F#
And I was born to wind in the cradle
B
And I ride on the hot southern breeze
A B
and I twist in the green and the gold
A B F#
and you see and there is blood on my elbows and knees
F#
And people want to grow old in the cradle
B
When there's snakes all around in the reeds
A B
And you ask me to fear of no evil
A B F#
When your fire's all over my feet
B F#
And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
B F#
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
A
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
B C#
And everything that's golden and green goes to hell

F#
I said bring out your Vivian girls
B
Bring out your cloud-covered girls
A B
and bring me a cup of your tears
A B F#
and give me the rest of your years
F#
Because everything dies, given time
B
And I know that this world could be mine
A B
So I closed both my eyes and I count my heartbeats
A B F#
and I know that my wings are on fire
B F#
And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
B F#
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
A
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
B C#
And everything that's golden and green goes to hell
*When going to the F# throughout the song ad lib hammer-ons from the E to F# bass note your power chords
