Verse 1
Em
1979,
a Georgia barrier island
A kid with a face stained with peach
Where wild horses run over the dunes
I, too, run feral down the beach
C
Em
We three on holiday in clothes of light
C
I was too young to understand
Em
Asus2
Am
Em
The distances that can live
in a space so close
Live oak casting shadows on the sand
D
Or was this always who we were?
C
born of blood and circumstance,
G
D
long ago in a polaroid blur.
Em
I was so long gone in love with you,
brightened in the winter.
Am
Em
Passions of youth come
calling so loud,
Am
Em
Willingly our bodies answer.
C
In the evening star pub,
Em
throwing darts at the wall,
C
Like the words we would
Em
throw at one another.
So much of it now I struggle to recall,
Asus2
But sure, we nev
Am
Em
er quite recover.
D
Was it even a specific day?
G
D
Like the seawall falling in the bay
Em
battered by so many waves
Asus2
Em
Now decades on,
the world's gone craven mad
The end of history never arrived
Just when it seemed
that democracy would chant eternal
Asus2
The ancient enemy
C
Em
Now in the last gasps of the old republics
C
Em
A culture splitting at the seams
The recent past
is like those faded photographs
Am
Asus2
We cling, hopefully,
Em
to a fractured dream
D
Was this always who we were?
The butternut boys
Em
C
The John Wayne go -it -alone
G
D
A na tion built on the lashing bones
We only see what's right
Em
While off in the margins
G
Asus4
D
The threat is very much alive
D
Was it even a specific day?
The slow eroding
Em
C
of the ties that bind
G
D
Like the seawall falling in the bay
Outro 1
battered by so many ways
