10,000 Candles


INTRO: C

C                                    F            C
It's a shame the flame must melt the candle to survive
        F                                 C
And the train must leave the station to arrive
         F                                  C          
The honey bee leads the thieves back to the hive
                           G           C
What's killing me's barely keeping me alive


CHORUS:
       F                   C
I have burned ten thousand candles
       G              C
I have rode a hundred trains
       F                  C
Stolen sweetness from the vandals
              G             C
And lived the life of Jesse James


BREAK: F  C  G  C


In the end the wind will send my ashes 'cross the skies
And tears will drench the lashes of your eyes
And I'll be free from hollow trees and cross-ties
And your love will remain my last disguise


CHORUS:
And I have burned ten thousand candles
I have rode ten thousand trains
Stolen sweetness from the vandals
And lived the life of Jesse James
