Burning Post by Mark Davis
Burning Post
Key: Dm
No Capo
Intro: Dm C Am Dm
Dm
She a memory a holy ghost
C
a glimpse of all he once loved most
Am Dm
She wanders like a whisper through the hallways
When day gives into dark of night
C
Dreams that die in sunlight
Am Dm
He sees her shadow standing in the doorway
She comes to him both sure and slow
C
Hey there honey why you all alone
Am Dm
Coming home to keep your lonely heart warm
He reaches for her standing there
C
He longs to touch her cold black hair’
Am Dm
but she vanishes into the dust she came from
You can’t hitch your pony to a burning post
C
You cant stop time not even close
Am Dm
Put a handle on the holy ghost not ever
[Bridge]
She’s a memory, a holy ghost
C
A sense of all he once held close
Am Dm
A blessin and a burden all together
Days falls into the night
C
To dull the bitter edge of sight
Am Dm
He tries his best sometimes just to forget her
He feels her presence everywhere
C
Smells her perfume in the air
Am Dm
She flickers like a candle in the window
He reaches for her to touch the flame
C
But she’s already so far away
Am Dm
She’s left him with a thousand pale momentos
Chorus…
