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