Verse 1:
    Dm                              G
You didn't wanna see me, oh but I'm your ghost
Bb*                                       A7
More than just a skeleton, I'm the unholy host
Dm                                       G
Strung up by a ripcord you pulled from my spine
    Bb*                        A7              Dm   A7
You saw the hollow sockets and hoped they were mine
    Dm                                    G
You didn't wanna see me, and now you want me gone
    Bb                                         A7
You think a little epilogue can stop my somber song
  Dm                                           G
I whistle with the dustbowl you blow through my ribs
    Bb                           A7               Dm   C
But who will be the corpse here? Someone's got to give

Chorus:
        Bb                   C
No more haunting me, no more flaunting your strife
    F                     A7
For all your grief you've kept your life
Bb    C       F             Gm          F              Dm         A7
 I'll be your ghost, though I might be gone you're the one living wrong
Bb   C      F          Gm             F               C
 No more verbose, if I bleed for your words you don't get to be heard
Bb  C       Dm             Gm              F                Eb7
 Oh why the frown? Did you think that this ghost would stay down
     A7                   A5           Bb        C              Dm    A7     Dm   A5 Edim
I'll reconcile you to the shade if you learn to amend with this ghost you've made

Verse 2:
    Dm                               G
You didn't wanna see me, but you let me in
    Bb                             A7
And now you abandon your vice, your sin
Dm                             G
Was I the answer or just the disease
    Bb*                            A7         Dm
You won't let me die, no- you just make me un-be.

Verse 3:
Dm                                    G
Now you won't see me, but you'll know I'm here
Bb                                    A7
I am the rain you feel when the sky is clear
Dm                                G
But how you possess me as I ghost your bones
     Bb                        A7              Dm    C
I've seen hell is empty, and I know you're not home

Chorus:
        Bb                   C
No more haunting me, no more flaunting your strife
    F                     A7
For all your grief you've kept your life
Bb    C       F             Gm          F              Dm         A7
 I'll be your ghost, though I might be gone you're the one living wrong
Bb   C      F          Gm             F               C
 No more verbose, if I bleed for your words you don't get to be heard
Bb  C       Dm             Gm              F                Eb7
 Oh why the frown? Did you think that this ghost would stay down
     A7                   A5           Bb        C              Dm    A7     Dm    C
I'll reconcile you to the shade if you learn to amend with this ghost you've made

Bridge:
Bb                      Dm       C                  F   C
Living with you has been painful, even when you're away
     Bb                           Dm                 C/G           A7    Dm   C
With all of the scars that you've left on my body, I live with you every day
Bb                   Dm             C                   F  C
Living with you I'm a parasite but I just can't let you go
         Bb                Dm               C               A7
Cause if agony is when I'm with you, it's despair when I'm alone

Outro:
Bb    C       Dm            Gm         F               Dm         A7
 I'll be your ghost, though I might be gone you're the one moving on
Bb    C    F          Gm          F            C
 It's so morose, if I bleed to be heard then I mean all these words
Bb  C       Dm             Gm         F           Eb7
 Oh why the frown? I guess both of us now are let down
     A7                  A5            Bb      C              Dm    A7     Dm   A5 Edim (Sting)
I'll reconcile you to the shade if you try to amend with this ghost you've made
