I Can't Live Like This Anymore - by Jeff Burgess

G          D      Bm               A
 Inspired the glow of pink summer skies
    G              D     Bm           A
 A tired dream to grow and materialize
G                  D        Bm                  A
 But working with you, the days turned to nights
G                D         Bm             A
 Certain as it grew, the stars are alright

          G               D         Bm           A
 So I'd sleep on the floor as the nights got cold
     G                D     Bm              A
 Oh who wants it more, the young or the old?
G               D          Bm              A
 No opportune times, the dream all but left
G                      D        Bm                A
 Bowing doesn't need rhymes -- bass is just a clef

    G        D         Bm         A
Oh, I can't live like this anymore
    G          D     Bm            A
My life needs music, I need to soar
          G         D         Bm              A
I could touch the stars then fall to the shore
    G        D         Bm         A
But I can't live like this anymore

       G               D          Bm            A
 The leaves start to change, the wind is chilled
     G         D         Bm          A
 An air you arranged, a song I killed
G                         D           Bm                 A
 I could tear out my mane, grind my hooves down to naught
G                        D       Bm               A
 But I'd die with no name, and a war left unfought

G                   D
 What was that thing?
   Bm           A
 I think, I forgot

    G        D          Bm              A
Oh, I can't live like this for too long
    G         D      Bm               A
My death is slow, my passion is strong
  G        D        Bm            A
Spite is deep and biting and wrong
    G        D          Bm             A
Oh, I can't live like this for too long
