Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][Bm][G][A]

[Verse 1]
Well we air clear blue [D]aching
skies in the morning af[Bm]ter
And memories of [G]gold on the run,
flying [A]around
Was there a drunken [D]cloud over
someone just [Bm]empty
A vision of a mount you [G]say,
so where did it go
[A]

[Verse 2]
It was [C#dim]light and I hel[Bm]d it like
[D]a c[G]hild to be s[A]aved
From [C#dim]the fires and from
[Bm]the falling down satel[D]lites
[G]But still won[A]dering

[Verse 3]
[A]Damn [D]you always tre[G]at me like a stranger,
[D]mou[Bm]ntain
Though [F#m]you've seen the [Bm]shadow between
the [D]city [G]and what is min[A]e
And fallen [D]kids all rising [G]men among their [D]logs,
[Bm]but [F#m]leav ers
Suddenly [Bm]darker [D]in their [G]eye
s and their broken [A]smiles
It's only what these kids will haul

[Interlude 1]
around
[D][Bm][G][A]

[Verse 4]
Well there's a lot of sul[D]len land
for hungry feed of an[Bm]swers
And medicine for [G]balancing things,
like seeing your [A]ghosts
So thank god we're [D]bright,
said the [Bm]lanterns brother
Cause I don't know [G]a thing about
boats or the land I see
[A]

[Verse 5]
It was [C#dim]day and I stood[Bm] there
once [D]again [G]climbing quick
[A]When I knew you[C#dim] were the[A] on[G]e[Bm]
throwing dying [G]stars on our [A]gathering

[Verse 6]
But he said
[D]Damn you always [G]treat me like [D]a mountain,
[Bm]stranger
[F#m]Though I have [Bm]never [G]seen your
[D]shad[G]ows or fading lights
[D]I'm just a rock that you'll be pic[G]king
up [D]through all your [Bm]ages
[F#m]Always [Bm]believing [D]there's a
[G]canyon for every [A]blind

[Outro 1]
It's only what these kids will haul around
[D][Bm][G][A]
[D][Bm][G][A]
