[Chorus]
N.C.              Am
I can't make the hills

               Am
The system is shot

               Dm
I'm living on pills

                  Am
For which I thank God
[Verse 2]
           Am
My animal howls

            Am
My angel's upset

              Dm
But I'm not allowed

             G
A trace of regret
[Verse 2]
                  E
For someone will use

                      Am
The thing I could not be

                   E
My heart will be heard

     Am       Dm
Impersonally
[Verse 3]
                    Dm
She'll step on the path

                   Am
She'll see what I mean

               Dm
My will cut in half

              Am
And freedom between
[Verse 4]
                E
For this in a second

                  F
Our lives will collide

               C
The endless suspended

                 G
The door opened wide
[Verse 5]
                 F
And she will be born

                 C
To someone like you

               G
What I left undone

                   C
She will certainly do
[Verse 6]
                F
I know she is coming

                     Fm
And I know she will look

                  C
And that is the longing

                 G
And this is the hook
[Chorus]
                  Am
I can't make the hills

               Am
The system is shot

               Dm
I'm living on pills

                  Am
For which I thank God
[Verse 7]
                 Am
My page was too white

                 Am
My ink was too thinned

                  Dm
The day wouldn't write

                       G
But the night penciled in
[Verse 8]
                   F
But I know she's coming

                     C
And I know she will look

              G
That is the longing

             C
This is the hook
[Verse 9]
               F
I know she is coming

                     Fm
And I know she will look

               C
That is the longing

                 G
And this is the hook
[Chorus]
                  Am    Asus2  Am
I can't make the hills

               Am   Asus2  Am
The system is shot

               Dm
I'm living on pills

                  Am   Asus2  Am
For which I thank God
[Verse 10]
                 Am   Asus2  Am
I sailed like a swan

               Am    Asus2  Am
I sank like a rock

                  Dm
But time is long gone

                   G
Past my laughing stock
[Chorus]
                   F
I can't make the hills

               Fm
The system is shot

                C
I'm living on pills

                   G
For which I thank God
