Ghost


This is more a piano song than a guitar song. So the chords i've written can be played ways but these are the best for the song. Intro: Piano part tabbed for guitar: e|--57-57-57-57-575-| b|-7--7--7--7--7----| repeat lots g|------------------| d|------------------| a|------------------| e|------------------| Chords: Gmaj7 D Gmaj7 D A Gmaj7 Bm Verse: Bm G/B I'll be the one to let this roof cave in on me Bm G/B Buried in this house, this wooden graveyard by the sea Gm/Bb A7sus4 We push away our families to understand our needs G#m7b5 Gmaj7 The love and all the hate I used to hold in front of me Verse: Restless nights, all dizzy spells, all sand between my sheets Showing signs of thirst I try down the boardwalk, all blistered feet And now I know I never knew about you, only me We carried this inside like some disease we couldn't beat Chorus: D But we could work, try to live and get by To make our family in the second-floor apartment Bb Standing on a threshold, body out in flesh, cold D Go ahead and celebrate the things you lost Chorus: D Try to breathe, to flex and release To cry and work out what underrate apartment (?) Bb Moments are a lifetime, nothing in a straight line D This will take a little while just to shake things off Post-chorus: D/A Bbaug Down by water's edge, under the dying tree G/B D I let my body slip, so dead inside of me D/A Bbaug But when I came around some kind of milky face Bm I don't ever want to be alone like this (intro riff) Gmaj7 Bm Verse: And I will tuck into you like I always want to be Shadows just a shade of black now, darkness in degree Oh it was you who knew we first saw this wasn't meant for kids like me Some hoodoo natural force we only feel we never see Chorus: But as we (?) in time, a brotherly sigh Their heads got small until they vanished into silence Sinking into white foam, running to a new home They can only understand the things we see Chorus: Just cease, desist, and leave me like this Their eyes wide open, the beauty of the bright lights Standing on a threshold, body out in flesh, cold I don't ever want to be alone like this, no D C# Bm I have no choice but to be vicious on my feet Bb I never sleep, I never eat D/A D I am learning how to be lost completely D A/C# Bm I want to be found, be craved like things we push away Bb These patterns cut like every day D I need you to reach, I need you to need me Pause: D Bm7 Down by water's edge, under a dying tree Gmaj7 D/A I let my body slip, so dead inside of me D Bm7 But when I came around some kind of milky face Gmaj7 D/A Shaking my bones, put me back in my place (same chords) I don't ever want to be alone like this For me, by the presence of the things I miss I don't ever want to be alone like this For me, by the presence of the things I miss (still the same chords) I am becoming a ghost of myself Oh I am becoming a ghost of myself Trapped little secrets, little things we never tell No I am becoming a ghost of myself (intro riff) Gmaj7 D A Gmaj7 D(end) Gmaj7 --- -3- -4- -4- -x- -3- G/B -3- -3- -4- -x- -2- --- Gm/Bb -3- -3- -3- -x- -1- --- A7sus4 -3- -3- -2- -x- -0- --- G#m7b5 --- -3- -4- -4- -x- -4- D/A -2- -3- -2- -0- -0- --- Bbaug -2- -3- -3- -0- -1- --- A/C# -x- -5- -2- -2- -4- --- Cheers.
