Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:
                Cmaj7
Been staring at you for days
                      B7
But you never seem to look my way
   Em                  G                    G7
My I love you's in your alphabet soup seem to go to waste
               Cmaj7
Been keeping myself at bay
                 B7
Now everything's going pear-shaped


Pre-Chorus:
        Em
I guess boys with beating hearts
       G   G7
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Cmaj7
Every time I try to make contact
B7
Feels like a supernatural attack
             Em
Misinterpret then you react
             G
I guess it's back to the attic
G7
I'm so dramatic
Cmaj7
It's so sad
        B7                   Em
But the last time that I let someone inside
      G       G7
I was buried alive

Chorus:
Cmaj7
Hi
         B7                            Em
I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
  G               G7
Nobody ever looks at me twice
Cmaj7
I'm used to being see-through
       B7
But it feels so bad when it happens with you
Em                        G     G7
Wish you'd see me the way I see you


Verse 2:
                   Cmaj7
I been spelling my name in your lego bricks
                    B7
I don't know how to be more obvious
       Em
You're close enough to almost touch
        G               G7
But not close enough to hold
           Cmaj7
Been tryna make my move
                    B7
But that dude keeps stealing you


Pre-Chorus:
        Em
I guess boys with beating hearts
       G   G7
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Cmaj7
Every time I try to make contact
             B7
Feels like a supernatural attack
             Em
Misinterpret then you react
             G
I guess it's back to the attic
G7
I'm so dramatic
Cmaj7
It's so sad
        B7                   Em
But the last time that I let someone inside
      G       G7
I was buried alive


Chorus:
Cmaj7
Hi
         B7                            Em
I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
  G               G7
Nobody ever looks at me twice
Cmaj7
I'm used to being see-through
       B7
But it feels so bad when it happens with you
Em                        G     G7
Wish you'd see me the way I see you

Outro:
             Cmaj7       B7
I don't know why I tried
              Em
When this was only ever gonna end
     G       G7
With my demise
              Cmaj7     B7
I don't wanna die twice
   Em                  G
It wasn't very fun the first time
                 Cmaj7
I don't know why I try
       B7                     Em      G
This rejection got me feeling cold as ice
              Cmaj7     B7
I don't wanna die twice
   Em                  G
It wasn't very fun the first time
                   Cmaj7   B7
I don't know why I try
              Cmaj7    B7
I don't wanna die twice
   Em                  G
It wasn't very fun the first time
