[Verse]
Am Dm G
Up on a mountain over the plains
C C/B Am
Christopher sat with his hands to his face
Dm G
This urn is her casket, this ash her remains
C C/B Am
It doesn't feel right just to throw it away
Dm G
So he kept it with him everywhere that he strayed
C C/B Am
With long narrow shadows he shouldered the weight
Dm G
If I keep her with me, then I'll keep her safe
C C/B
He choked down the words that he wanted to say
[Chorus]
F C G Am G F
Wish I could run from the place that poisons my passion away
C G
Wish I never wrote her anything
Am G Am
Let this be the last song I sing
[Interlude]
Am Dm G C C/B (x2)
