Living With The Ghost Chords

(ver. 1)
Bon Jovi
[Intro]

G5  B5  E5    C5
G5  B5  E5    D5 

[Verse 1]

G5                B5    
Marry me to the blue sky
C5
Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain
E5                      B5
Meet me where they stop time
D5
That's you to me on the shovel that's digging this grave
B5
Till I can waltz on a moonbeam
C5
Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine
G5                            B5
I'll hitch my ride to a day dream
D5                                           C5  
Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind

[Chorus]

                         G5
I ain't living with the ghost
                        C5
No future living in the past
                                E5 
I've seen that hate has done to hop
                         D5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
                         C5
I ain't living with the ghost
                            E5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
                                 D5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
                         C5
I ain't living with the ghost

[Verse 2]

G5                         B5
I set my sails over wheat fields
C5
Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face
E5                                 B5
I dropped the sword, put down my shield
D5
I left your scars for the stars guiding my way
B5
I traded hurting for healing
C5                                                   G5 
I must admit that I was reeling now I'm feeling just fine
                         B5
I traded nightmares for dreaming
D5                                   C5
Go tell your shadows that I got out alive

[Chorus]

                         G5 
I ain't living with the ghost
                        C5  
No future living in the past
                                E5           
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
                         D5 
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
                         C5
I ain't living with the ghost
                            E5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
                                 D5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
                         C5    
I ain't living with the ghost

[Solo]

G5  C5  E5  D5  C5  E5  D5

[Bridge]

     C5
Last night I had this dream
        Am                         D
I saw a man wash his feet in the church holy water
    C
He worked up to his knees
         Em                        D
From his arms to his neck said I'm over in my head
         C  
He was crying trying to get some relief
          Am                            
Lord, I'm just trying to get some relief
             C
I had this dream
              G  C  Em  D
That man was me

[Chorus]

                         G5
I ain't living with the ghost
                        C5
No future living in the past
                                E5
I've seen what hurt has done to hope I found the tree I cut the rope
                         D5
Tomorrow wasn't built to last
                         C5
I ain't living with the ghost
                            E5
How can I scream, I'm scared to breathe
                                 D5
I wrote each word, you gave the toast
But we were fire and gasoline
                             C5
Now I ain't living with the ghost

[Outro]

G5  B5  E5    C5
G5  B5  E5    D5  G5
