Intro C Am F G
Verse
C Am
Well we air clear blue aching skies in the morning after,
F G
and memories of gold on the run, flying around,
C Am
was there a drunken cloud over someone just empty,
F G
a vision of a mountain you say, so where did it go?
Bridge
G7 Am F G
It was light and i held it like a child to be saved
G7 Am F
from the fires and from the falling down satellites
G
but still wondering
Chorus
C F C Am
"Damn you always treat me like a stranger, mountain
Em Am F G
though you've seen the shadow between the city and what is mine,
C F C Am
and fallen kids all rising men among their logs, but leavers,
Em Am F G
suddenly darker in their eyes and their broken smiles,
G C
it's only what these kids will haul around."

Verse
C Am
Well there's a lot of sullen land for hungry feed of answers,
F G
and medicine for balancing things, like seeing your ghosts,
C Am
So thank god we're bright, said the lanterns brother,
F G
cause I don't know a thing about boats or the land I see
Bridge
G7 Am F G
It was day and I stood there once again climbing quick
G7 Am F G
when I knew you were the one throwing dying stars on our gathering
but he said
Chorus
C F C Am
"Damn you always treat me like a mountain, stranger
Em Am F G
though I have never seen your shadows or fading lights,
C F C Am
I'm just a rock that you'll be picking up through all your ages,
Em Am F G
always believing there's a canyon for every blind,
G C
it's only what these kids will haul around."
C Am F G
