Track 9 of 11 on the album "In A Perfect World" (2007) [Intro] D C D C [Verse 1]
       D                                                     C
I felt neighbors peep through curtains as I started breaking ground

        D                              C       G       D
I could feel their curiosity, but they did not come around

D                                                  C
Six foot long and six foot deep, exactly four foot wide

  D                                C        G     D
I gathered everything you left and threw it all inside

        D                                        C
Covered photographs and memories one shovel at a time

    D                                   C         G     D
But I still got this haunted heart that keeps the past alive
[Chorus]
  G                    D
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace

   D                                               A
It rises with the sinking sun and sets your memory free

       G                                    D
It's a heartless, endless hunger that feeds off my misery

  D                    C        G       D            C
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
[Verse 2]
  D                                                     C
I close the blinds and bolt the doors, secure inside my house

      D                              C       G          D
But I find I've only locked me in, I haven't locked you out

D                                                    C
Left with nowhere else to turn, I rummage through my mind

   D                              C        G      D
It isn't long before I learn your memory's still alive
[Chorus]
  G                    D
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace

   D                                               A
It rises with the sinking sun and sets your memory free

       G                                    D
It's a heartless, endless hunger that feeds off my misery

  D                    C        G       D
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace

  D                    C        G       D
I buried our love, but it won't rest in peace
[Outro] D C D C G D D C D C
