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
