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)
