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
