Verse1-
E
A Thousand pairs of fiery eyes
B
Burn like a serpent down the hwy 5
A B E
As the Long amber tail to Los Angeles unwinds
E
I've got resurrection down in side my skin
B
But for all my revealating
A
I just can�t make sense
B E
Of this gravity we're in
Chorus-
C#m
Cause I'm a dead man now with a ghost who lives
B
Within the confines of these carbon ribs
A B
And one day when I'm free
C#m
I will sit
B E B
The cripple at your table
A B E
The cripple by your side
Verse2-
E
A thousand miles of pain I'm sure
B
Led you to the threshold of my hearts screen door
A E
To tell me what it is I'm dying for
Gravity comes like a cold cold rain
B
To lead me to the rope again
A B E
But someone is standing in my place
Bridge-
C#m B
And I sit beside you
A B
And I sit beside you
