Standard (EADGBE)

Somewhere in the night she's running for the border

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:

And these lives form a line (whoa oh oh oh)

'Cause ties are strong with the time (whoa oh oh oh)

And buried deep in her mind

She met him in a camp right beside the border

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

And 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, ghosts and cameos

Instrumental

Somewhere in the dawn she's lying at the border

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

think it sounds ok.
