Verse Pattern:

Verse:
Is it all that you want?

I wish I could do that again but I already know,
that the power of Christ is inside her
is too strong for me to overthrow.
And I wasn't talking about Whoopi Goldberg 
when I said that I would see your ghost.
and I will follow you now to your grave somehow,
but you've always been crap as a host,
and you'd push me from pillar to post.

Chorus:

G                               Dsus/F# 
These are the days when you will recognize
       Dsus4                       Em7
all the love and the loss in your eyes
                    Cadd9              Dsus/F#
and the memories of me at the vending machines.

      Em7     Dsus4       Cadd9  
does god even know what it means 
G     Dsus4                  
to be taken down in fits and starts
    Cadd9
by village halls and vandal hearts?
       Em7            Dsus4        Cadd9
and i wish I was your lone god for just one day
       Dsus4             Em7
I would do the things I never do
Cadd9   
none of which i'd owe to you
    Em7          Dsus4        Cadd9            
and no-one even listens to a word these people say.

Verse:

And I wish I could try that again
but I already knew that persistence is never my strong point,
this desire is too long overdue.
and I wasn't thinking I was Patrick Swayze
when I went dirty dancing with you.
And I'd follow you now to your grave somehow
but I'm not sure what good it would do.
what does that even prove?

Chorus:

G                             Dsus/F# 
These are the days when you will recognize
       Dsus4                       Em7
all the love and the loss in your eyes
                    Cadd9              Dsus/F#
and the memories of me at the vending machines.

      Em7         Dsus4     Cadd9  
does god even know what it means 
G     Dsus4                  
to be taken down in fits and starts
    Cadd9
by village halls and vandal hearts?
       Em7            Dsus4        Cadd9
and i wish I was your lone god for just one day
       Dsus4            Em7
I would do the things I never do
Cadd9   
none of which i'd owe to you
    Em7          Dsus4        Cadd9            
and no-one even listens to a word these people say.


    G                        Dsus/F#
And now that you fear it the most,
   Dsus4                    Em7
I thought of you not as a ghost
       Cadd9                 Em7      G 
now I'm hiding confessions in prose
                           G    Dsus/F#  Dsus4   Em7
none of which you'll ever alter.


G                 Dsus/F#
Is it all that you want,
                        Em7
is it everything you've got?
   Dsus4
my god.



to be taken down in fits and starts
by village halls and vandal hearts?
and I wish I was your lone god for just one day.
I would do the things I never do,
none of which I'd owe to you
and no-one even listens to a word these people say.

Verse:
"Slow down, slow down!"
calls the captain as his ship runs aground.
and I could swing this vessel to starboard
but there's really no point in that now.


Outro:



and I admit that I counted my chickens
and since then I've been counting the cost.



And you hate all life's unanswered questions,
but you still hurry home to watch Lost.
