Well,
Gm Em C G F#
You and I both know that the house is haunted,
Gm Em C G F#
And you and I both know that the ghost is me,
Gm Em C G F#
Used to catch me in your bedsheets just rattling your chains,
Gm
Well back then baby it didn't seem so strange,
D C Gm F# Gm
I used to bite I used to moan,

Well back then baby it didn't seem so strange,
Am C Em7
But even when one is dead and gone,
Am C Em7
It still takes two to make a house a home,
Am C Em7
I'm as lonesome as the catacombs
Am
I hear you call my name but no ones there,
Em7/4
Except a feeling in the air,
Cause, you and I both know that the house is haunted,
Yeah you and I both know that the ghost is you,
You should walk around screaming oh slamming all them doors,
D
Well I'm all grown up now I don't scare easy no more,
Gm Em C G F#
Cause, you and I both know,
Gm Em C G F#
You and I both know, ooh,
Gm Em C G F#
You and I both know, ooh,
Gm Em C G F#
You and I both know, ooh,
