______________________________________________________________________________
Most of this song is palm-muted. Listen to the song to nail the timing/rhythm.
Where chords are marked as, 'G#/A5' and 'C#/D5' this simply indicates it is a chord that is a mix between keys. Also when a chord sequence is marked as, 'E5~D5~C#5 B5' for instance, the ~ symbol intends to indicate it is a quick change between the chords mentioned. Also, the chords are not lined up exactly with the proper timing of the words, so again, might want to listen closely to the song to nail the timing between the chords. Have fun! It's rock o' clock! I love this song!

A5A5      G#/A5
He dont get out much
F#5F#5    E minorEm
These days
               D5D5  C#/D5~D5
But I wouldnt call him
E minorEm   E5~D5~C#5 B5B5
Lazy

  A5A5      G#/A5
He sees the dawn sneak
F#5F#5    E minorEm
Into the room
D5D5    C#/D5~D5
And knows the dogs will
E minorEm   E5~D5~C#5
Be up soon

B5B5     A5A5                 E5E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
B5B5     A5A5         E5E5      A5(OR OPTIONAL E5~D5~C#5 B5*)
As the sun chased down another night

*instrumental, play through the verse sequence once, while lead synth/guitar plays melody hook*

A5A5    G#/A5
And days carreen
F#5F#5     E minorEm
Like the waters
D5D5  C#/D5~D5
Of a river rushing
E minorEm  E5~D5~C#5 B5B5
To the sea

A5A5   G#/A5
Here she comes again
F#5F#5     E minorEm
Down the staircase
D5D5    C#/D5~D5
She never passes without
E minorEm  E5~D5~C#5
Saying hello

B5B5                 A5A5          E5E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
    B5B5     A5A5    E5E5
And she says hello
B5B5    A5A5          E5E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5B5    A5A5          E5E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5B5    A5A5          E5E5
I cant forget the ghost
     D5D5
Of his smile

*instrumental, play through the verse sequence once, while lead synth/guitar plays melody hook*

A5A5       G#/A5
Dogs will wag their tails
F#5F#5      E minorEm
And birds will sing
D5D5    C#/D5~D5
Hell its a hard world
E minorEm        E5~D5~C#5
For little things

B5B5              A5A5          E5E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
B5B5    A5A5        E5E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5B5    A5A5       E5E5
I cant forget the ghost
