Em G C
i opened my eyes as sunlight broke over the marsh .

caught in a storm drain and into a gutter .
G D C
i had no memory of who i was .

G C
500 years i was a ghost for you .

500 years i was lost for you .

i can’t move on for 500 years . 500 years .

Em G C
i followed coquina sidewalks down into the city ,
Em G C
the palm rats danced on the telephone wires hanging up above me .

i knew that his black eyes were watching on me .
G D C
i could feel the heat of the flames reaching out for me .

Em G
somewhere in the cemetery ,
C
i know my corpse is rotting .
Em G C
with a cold heart in my chest and not a draw left in my breath
G D C
sometimes it feels like i have always been here ,
G D C
sometimes it feels like i will never leave
