Nearly Beloved by The Wallflowers
words and music by Jakob Dylan

F G Am
FLast night I drGeamt one thousand lAmives
I could see the daFwn through a diffGerent set of Ameyes
FThere in my sluGmber passing tAmime
Long live the wForld resGting on its siAmde
I walked the orFchard with yFou
Your haGnd in my Ammine
FIn the evergreFens drinking E7wine
I saw the sAmnow fall in bGlack and white from the aFuburn sFky
Last niE7ght I lived more than one thousand lAmives
Not onGe of them surFvived
Up through the earth and dawn I came
I crossed the kingdom through venom pouring rain
In the vacuum of my own brigade
Resurrected to make you mine again
Orpheus looked back once, she sailed the underworld
No second chances will be earned
I have returned as a phantom now to walk the bow and stern
Last niE7ght I lived more than one thousand lAmives
Not onGe of them surFvived
AmIf we could do better I kEmnow that we would
FMaybe admit it now, we're nFot that goGod
AmWe keep the needle between zEmero and one
FYou play your fiddle, baby, IF'll play duGmb F
Into the pastures of our minds
Goes my nearly beloved and I
Blazing two parallel white lines
Through this broken heart spilled open wide
Time might be on my side
But it's mostly far behind
I was the apple of your eye
Now I'm the boy spinning on a wheel there stuck with knives
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
Not one of them survived
