Intro: |C#m|E/H|Asus2 A|F#| x2
PART A:
Verse 1:
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
Just a Lonestar in the sky, treading the night
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
Cutting loose the mess you left, taking flight
Pre-chorus 1:
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
From coast to coast, you move like a ghost, trying to break the past,
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
So follow the road, to wherever it goes, and strike up another chance,
Chorus 1:
E F#m C#m A F#
Lonestar, counting all the people, and the passing time,
E F#m C#m A F#
You are, high above the mountain, and the column vine,
Verse 2:
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
She borrowed a whole right through your brain, at citrus heights,
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
Fallen angel of her you made, by first light,
Pre-chorus 2:
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
Well aint it sad, when you feel it this bad, and your body burns to know,
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
The shape of a limb, as the night bird sings, our friend in afterglow,
Chorus 2 & 3:

E F#m C#m A F#
Lonestar, counting all the people, and the passing time,
E F#m C#m A F#
You are, watching all the wishes, dying on the vine,
E F#m C#m A F#
Lonestar, flies above the mountain, and column vine,
E F#m C#m A F#
How far, do I have to wonder, before the dream is mine,
Verse 3:
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
Well now you know, there's no way back, to your old life,
C#m E/H Asus2 A F#
Like two trains, on the same track, you collide,
Pre-chorus 3:
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
The roses are red, are the words that you said, as she lay by your side,
C#m F# A Bsus4 B
But all you could think, as you stood by the sink, was wash me away with the tide,
