Drop D on acoustic

Verse 1
D5                    G5
You and I meet on the shores of the broken
D5                                  B5
You swallow the ocean, I swallow my pride
D5              G5
Only to see the way that I need You
   D5                      B5
Is more than I knew I ever could


Chorus 1
A5                         E5
In between the ashes and the flames
     A5                                E5
Is a cry an awkward silence could never contain
        A5 
And the falling of my hammers and the writhing of my pain
   G5                                                  D5       G5
Is just not as real as the way that You're calling my name


Verse 2
I can't help thinking that the way that You want me
And the ghost that haunts me are one and the same
Cause you stand at my window at night while I'm sleeping
There's not a promise I'm keeping that could ever repay You


Chorus 2
A5                         E5
In between the ashes and the flames
          A5                                E5
There's a song that burns brighter than radio waves
        A5 
About the remnants of my idols and the shadow of my shame
                G5
About how they scatter like the rain and I can't stop crying
                                D5
Cause You won't stop calling my name
           B5                D5               E5       
Calling my name,  calling my name, up from the ashes


Outro (end on D5 )
D5 - B5 - D5 - E5 



As I said above, he's playing this in drop D. Here's the way I play the 
chords, but play them however sounds best for you.
