Gm      F            Eb
I saw a ghost on the stairs
    Gm            F          Eb
And sheets on the tables and chairs
    Gm         F            Eb         
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
     Gm          Eb            F
Even so, I don't know what to think

Cm        Bb       F
I've been longing for
Eb           Bb                F 
Daisies to push through the floor
   Cm      Bb                Ab         Eb         
And I wish plant life would grow all around me
   C#            Ab           Eb
So I won't feel dead anymore
   C#            Ab           Eb
So I won't feel dead anymore

Gm      F             Eb
I saw a bear in the den
Gm        F              Eb
Reading my textbooks again
     Gm              F                Eb
That bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic
       Gm            Eb             F
Heaven knows, I could really use a friend
Bb          A#7M           Cm               Eb 
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
    Bb              Bb/D       Eb           F
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Bb          A#7M          Cm         Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
  Cm         Bb/D           Eb                   F
If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?

Instrumental (x2): Cm  Gm  Bb  F

Cm        Bb       F
I've been longing for

And I wish plant life would grow all around me

So I won't feel dead anymore
   C#            Ab           Eb
So I won't feel dead anymore

Cm        C#         Ab                  Eb
Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet
    F#           C#          Eb
And give me a ghost of a smile
Cm                C#               Ab           Eb
Show me your teeth 'cause you're teddy beneath
   F#              C#             Eb
So just grin and bear it a while
F#             C#/F            Eb
Just grin and bear it a while

Bbm        Ab       Eb
To-night I'm busting out
   Cm       Bb       F   
Of this old haunted house
           Bbm      Ab       Eb  
'Cause I'm sick of waiting for
        Cm     Bb       Ab         Eb
All the spider webs to grow all around me
       C#            Ab           Eb
'Cause I don't feel dead anymore
    C#        Fm            Eb 
And I'm not afraid anymore
