G Close the door on a short night D Lift the lid on the daylight Em C 6:09 West Tennessee time G And I buy all my days D C At the same place where the girl sells her nights C G To a God of ocean tides. Chorus: D G D All night long, G C G Writing poems to California Em Melodies of failure Am And the people I have thrown D G D G C G Away, meanwhile, somewhere west of Carolina Em In a congregation of strangers A7 We are digging holes to China C Then we pray to our reflections In the water when it rises. Headlights pin the highway down Jesus spins the world around I spend all my tomorrows coming down Goodbye all my days I know I said I never loved you But I might just try again tonight G/B C Truck stops and river gods D G Gas stations of the Cross D Following a ghost, Am Following a ghost, C D I pray the water wash away Em D Cmaj7 The memories and the cost. D G C Carry me south, to the sea D/E G Cmaj7 Along with your memories of me D G We are born in the water C And I will re-turn to Thee. C Colored lights G/D And birthday cakes C Candle wax G On paper plates. C Breathe the water G Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye. C You can see through water G All the way up to the sky. Gods of water Gods of rain Cover up the sun again We are crossing at the Mississippi line I tried all my days To love you just the way you hoped I might But I’m leaving here tonight I can’t remember yesterday I tried If I said I could I lied You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A7  C  Cmaj7  D  E  Em  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
