🎸 Intro: 

 G  D  Bm   A 
              
 G  D  Bm 




🎸 Verse 1:
       G      D       Bm         A 
I'm sailin' away to a place I'm afraid of
      G         D       Bm 
The dawn isn't here, the sun hasn't rose
      G          D          Bm          A 
I'm drinkin' my days with a coastal on Shoreman
           G       D        Bm 
They got money to make and children back home
      G           D             Bm          A 
The last that I heard, you were down in New Orleans
   G          D           Bm 
Workin' your days at The Print
     G           D         Bm             A 
I drink 'til I drown and I smoke 'til I'm burnin'
        G           D       Bm 
Your hands are all over my scent
   G         D       Bm 
I worry for you, you worry for me
           G         D             Bm 
And it's fine if we know we won't change
     G          D            Bm         A 
Collect every dream in these old empty pockets
     G             D          Bm   A 
In hope that I'll need 'em someday

🎸 Chorus: 
           D 
But the wreckage of you
I no longer reside in
           G           D             Bm 
And the bridges have long since been burned
      D 
The ash of the home that I started the fire in
      G        D           Bm 
It starts to return to the Earth
       D 
I'm leavin' this town and I'm changin' my address
     G               D         Bm 
I know that you'll come if you want
       D 
It's not Halloween but the ghost you're dressed up as
        G           D              Bm 
Sure knows how to haunt, yeah, she knows how to haunt

🎸 Post-Chorus: 
  G      D  Bm   A 
Mm-hmm-mm          
 G  D  Bm 
          


🎸 Verse 2:
         G          D          Bm            A 
It's an ode to the hole that I found myself stuck in
       G          D           Bm 
The song for the grave that I dug
            G          D         Bm            A 
There's a murder of crows in the low light off Boston
     G          D          Bm 
And I see your face in each one
      G       D          Bm      A 
I'm losing myself in the tiniest objects
       G       D         Bm 
I'm seein' my life on a screen
      G            D         Bm              A 
I'm hearin' your voice in a strange foreign language
      G      D           Bm 
If only I learned how to speak

🎸 Chorus: 
           D 
But the wreckage of you
I no longer reside in
           G           D             Bm 
And the bridges have long since been burned
      D 
The ash of the home that I started the fire in
      G        D           Bm 
It starts to return to the Earth
       D 
I'm leavin' this town and I'm changin' my address
     G               D         Bm 
I know that you'll come if you want
       D 
It's not Halloween but the ghost you're dressed up as
        G           D              Bm 
Sure knows how to haunt, yeah, she knows how to haunt

🎸 Post-Chorus: 
     D 
Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh)
                   G  D  A 
You know how to haunt      
               D 
Know how to haunt
                         G  D  A 
Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh)          
     D                       G  D  A 
Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh, ooh)          
Ah, ooh
     D                         G  D  A 
Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)        

🎸 Outro: 
     G           D             Bm        A 
I know that you fear that I'm wicked and weary
    G             D        Bm 
I know that you fear in the end
         G            D           Bm            A 
But I only tell the truth but I'm sure that I'm lyin'
     G          D         Bm 
So I'm settin' sail once again
