A Ghost - Travis

Em

Em
Line by line we drew it up
Em
Had our fill and threw it up
Em
Wrote the will and tore it up
      Em
And I can't even say why
Em
All my past is shoring up
Em
Beating on my door won’t stop
Em
Couldn't lie so I made it up
      Em
And I can't even say why
  Em
I can’t even say why
      Am         C      D
And I wonder as I walk away
      Am           C        D
Did I ever love it all the way
      Am         C         D
Did I open up my heart and say it like I mean it
                          C
From the end right to the start
                 G
From seeing to believing
         Em    C
Oh but I saw a ghost
       D
In the mirror coming near
             Em    C        D
A little close for comfort tonight
                    Em      C
Ooh he said “It's easier to be alive
     D
Than hide under your pillow while
           Em      C       D
While your life is passing you by”
Em
One by one they carry us
Em
Break our hearts and marry us
Em
Dig us up then bury us
      Em
And I wish I could say why
Em
All my past is sure enough
Em
Beating on my door has stopped
Em
Couldn't lie so I made it up
      Em
And I don't even know why
  Em
I don't even know why
      Am         C      D
And I wonder as I walk away
      Am           C        D
Did I ever love it all the way
      Am         C         D
Did I open up my heart and say it like I mean it
                          C
From the end right to the start
                 G
From seeing to believing
       Em      C
Oh but I saw a ghost
       D
In the mirror coming near
             Em    C        D
A little close for comfort tonight
                    Em      C
Ooh he said “It's easier to be alive
     D
Than hide under your pillow while
           Em      C       D
While your life is passing you by”
             Em  C  D
So live your life
                 Em  C  D
Don't waste your time
              Em  C  D
Ooh live your life
                 Em  C  D
Don't waste your time

Em  C  D

Em        C            D
  I saw a ghost in the mirror coming nearer
Em        C            D
  I saw a ghost in the mirror, in the mirror
   Em      C
Oh I saw a ghost
       D
In the mirror coming near
            Em     C         D
A little close for comfort tonight
           Em       C          D

             Em  C  D
So live your life
Em      C      D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Em      C       D
Aah aah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Em    C     D
Oh oh oh oh oh ah
