Fm D# Fm
Swing swing, gallows swing
C# Fm
From anger back to sorrow
D# Fm
Morning gets what midnight brings
G# D#
And I’ll be dead tomorrow
Fm
Just another ghost
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
My wife left me last wintertime to join another man
D# C# G# D#
I lost her love forever and I lost my mind right then
Fm G# D# Fm
When I tried but couldn’t picture her sweet face inside my head
C# G# D# Fm C# D#sus2 Fm C# Fm C# Fm
I could only see her lover’s grin, it’s true I killed him dead
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
But I’ve always been an honest man, as crystal as the sea
D# C# G# D#
I’ve always said when I’ve done wrong, and I’ve said when wrong’s done me
Fm G# D# Fm
So listen to my warning though I know it might sound strange
C# G# D# Fm C# D#sus2 Fm C# Fm C# Fm
To those who cast condoning eyes upon me when I hang
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
And let me tell you what I’ve learned, what my guilty mind has seen
D# C# G# D#
Of life and then of death and then how ghosts get stuck between
Fm G# D# Fm
There’s no slamming doors, no rattling chains, no long black veils at night
C# G# D# Fm C# D#sus2 Fm C# Fm C# Fm
But you’d wish there was cause then you might could die to put things right
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
But ghosts have got no bodies left, and ghosts have got no will
D# C# G# D#
There just etchings on your conscience by the hands that had them killed
Fm G# D# Fm
And the world it all looks yellow now, and every breath is foul
C# G# D# Fm C# D#sus2 Fm C# Fm C# Fm
And the water tastes like rancid oil, and the mockingbirds just howl
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
You can never touch someone you love, it’ll burn them if you try
D# C# G# D#
And the face inside the mirror stares back with goldfish bowls for eyes
Fm G# D# Fm
And the only dream you ever have is of lying there awake
C# G# D# Fm
And it never rains upon your head, it spits into your face
Fm C# G# D# Fm
A# ghost has haunted me -- and worn me thin
C# G# D#
I got what I deserved a thousand times again
Fm C# G# D# Fm
Oh listen please -- my final words
C# G# D# Fm
Before you bring yourself to watch the final length of cord
Fm D# Fm C# Fm
Cause ghosts don’t die when hands take hands, and ghosts are not released
D# C# G# D#
It’s dust to dust and ash to ash, or beast and back to beast
Fm G# D# Fm
I hope your heart is large and that there’s room enough in you
C# G# D# Fm C# D#sus2 Fm C# Fm C# Fm
For the ghost you choose to make of me and the ghost that haunts me, too
Fm D# Fm
Swing swing, gallows swing
C# Fm
From anger back to sorrow
D# Fm
Hide your eyes and wash your wings
G# D#
Cause I’ll be dead tomorrow
Fm
Just another ghost
