  			D 
You and I meet 
G 
On the shores of the broken 
D 
You swallow the ocean 
G 
I Swallow my pride 
D 
Only to see 
G 
The way that I need you 
D 
Is more than I knew 
G 
I ever could 

A                            G 
In between the ashes and the flames 
A 
Is a cry an awkward silence 
G 
Could never contain 
A 
And the falling of my hammers 

And the writhing of my pain 
   G 
Is just not as real as the way 

That your calling my name 

D G 

D 
I cant help thinking 
G 
That the way that you want me 
D 
And the ghost that haunts me 
G 
Are one and the same 
D 
Cause you stand at my window 
G 
At night wile I'm sleeping 
D 
There's not a promise I'm keeping 
G 
That could ever repay you 

A                            G 
In between the ashes and the flames 
A 
There's a song that burns brighter 
G 
Than Radio waves 
A 
Bout the remnants of my Idols 

And the shadow of my shame 
               G 
About how they scatter like the rain and I can't stop crying 
                                   D5 
Cause you wont stop calling my name 
G5 
Calling my name 
B5                               E5 
Calling my name up from the ashes 


D5  G5  B5  E5
