Track Name: casey
em g
someone once told me
a c
once you say no

you'll never get back
what ya had before

its all in the letters
I never sent
pieces of something
different than I meant

am g
now slow dancin
c
might never be the same
and I'm not sure I'll ever
wanna kiss that way again
believe me when I tell you
that you'll always see my breath

am g c g
I wear life on my sleeve babe
so you dont have to guess
[repeat]

now I gotta walk babe
you told me not to run
but if I stand still then
where's the fun in it

you think you're not heavy
but you're weighin on my mind
there's what's too good in life
and then there's what you really find

[refrain]
Track Name: sand/stone
am c/g f9
I fell down over sand and stone
to make you feel at home
my god I'm afraid of bein' alone
am c/g f9 c/g
and I fell down over sand and stone

my knees were cracked and my chest was bruised
all for my part in not leavin you
my life I gave in this stupid pursuit

and my blood ran over sand and stone

I gave you one last chance to prove
you were worth have what I thought you were
you failed, I'm gone, I'm not comin back soon

I will leave you to sand and stone
I will leave you to your sand and stone alone

am c/g f c/g
you'll never be rid of your fears at night
but the dawning of day will come soon enough
I hope you can live on the breath of lies
cause we all know truth is a ways behind
Track Name: the sea
g9
I thought I saw you
b7
at niagara falls
dm7 am7 g9
but it was just somebody else
b7 dm7 am7
and I thought I knew your face
em dm7 am7 c
yeah I thought I knew your face

their hair was wet
and they smelled like salt
and that hits home with me
you know I love the sea

if I could change
one thing about you
I'd make you need me
but the rest I'd keep the same

and now you live
so far away
and it hurts me every day
I love you, won't you stay

I thought I saw you
in my dreams at night
but it was just something else
and I thought I knew your face
-or-
it was just a reflection of myself
-or-
both
