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

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

Am Am G G F F
I saw a bear in the den
Am Am G G F F
Reading my textbooks again
Am Am G G
The bats flowed like traffic
F F
As they poured from the attic
Am Am F F G G
Heaven knows, I could really use a friend

C C G G Dm Dm F F
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
C C G G
The trees keeps the tempo
F F G G
And they sway in time
C C G G Dm Dm F F
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
Dm Dm C C F F
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings
G G
Would you strum on mine?

Interlude (X2) Dm Dm Am Am C C G G

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

Dm Dm Eb Eb
Your spirit is sweet
Bb Bb F F
So pull off your sheet
Eb Eb Bb Bb F F
And give me a ghost of a smile
Dm Dm Eb Eb
Show me your teeth
Bb Bb F F
Cause you're a teddy beneath
Eb Eb Bb Bb F F
So just grin and bear it a while
Eb Eb Bb Bb F F
Just grin and bear it awhile

Bb Bb D D Cm Cm Eb Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb Bb D D
The trees keeps the tempo
Eb Eb F F
And they sway in time
Bb Bb D D Cm Cm Eb Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
Cm Cm Bb Bb Eb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings
F F
Would you strum on mine?

Interlude: Cm Cm Gm Gm Bb Bb F F

Cm Cm Bb Bb F F
Tonight I'm busting out
Dm Dm C C G G
Of this old haunted house
Cm Cm Bb Bb F F
Cause I'm sick of waiting for
Dm Dm C C
All the spider webs
Bb Bb F F
To grow all around me
Eb Eb Bb Bb
Cause I don't feel dead anymore
Eb Eb Gm Gm F F
And I'm not afraid anymore

Bb Bb D D Cm Cm Eb Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb Bb D D
The trees keeps the tempo
Eb Eb F F
And they sway in time
Bb Bb D D Cm Cm Eb Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
Cm Cm Bb Bb Eb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings
F F
Would you strum on mine?

Interlude: Gm Gm Gm Gm Bb Bb C7 C7 Eb Eb Ebm Ebm

Cm Cm Bb Bb Eb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings
F F Bb Bb
Would you strum on mine?
