New Country Rehab: Cameo
D Em
Somewhere in the night she's running for the border
G D
With an agate cameo that's hidden deep inside her past.
Imagining the days when another made her own run
Through the mountains to the border with an army at her back.
Hook:
Em
And these lives form a line (whoa oh oh oh)
Em
'Cause ties are strong with the time (whoa oh oh oh)
G
And buried deep in her mind…
D Em
She met him in a camp right beside the border
G D
But so many years have passed; now there's just a cameo.
Granddaughter's growing up on this side of the border
In a prison nearly broken this is her romeo.
Hook:
And the days drift on by (whoa oh oh oh)
A lazy sun through the sky (whoa oh oh oh)
Reconnect by and by…
Chorus:
D Em
And these moments define what you hold in your mind
D Em
Your perception of time, your perception of time
D Em
Moves painfully slowly when you’re not quite whole
A (sounds better with barre on 5th)
And you’ve nowhere to go, ghosts and cameos
Instrumental
D Em
Somewhere in the dawn she's lying at the border
G D
He never made it to the phone so they had to let her go
Free from tyranny, their lives just across the border
Gently holds her cameo, now the two of them are whole
Hook:
And these lives form a line (whoa oh oh oh)
'Cause ties are strong with the time (whoa oh oh oh)
You’ve got to make up your mind (whoa oh oh oh)
Find a reason why…
Chorus
All these moments define what you hold in your mind
Your perception of time, your perception of time
Moves painfully slowly when you’re not quite whole
And you've nowhere to go…
You've nowhere to go…
When you've nowhere to go
Ghosts and cameos
##Great song from a Canadian band. It's my first time working out a song, but I
think it sounds ok.
