F G
Tell me what you saw in me
Dm G
And I’ll try to replicate it with a scene
Mm-mmm
F G
If it troubles you to breathe
Dm G
Wait a moment; I could change the scenery
F G
Don’t carry on carrying efforts, no no, oh oh oh oh
Dm G
Somewhere there’s a room for each of us to grow
F G
And if it pleases you to leave me, just go, oh oh oh oh
Dm G
Stopping you would stifle your enchanting ghost
Mm-mmm

F G
It’s only that I meant to bring
Dm G
Love and liveliness to your breast on the scene
Mm-mmm
F G
Did you cut your hands on me?
Dm G
Are my edges sharp? Am I a pest to feed?

(piano comes in)
F G
Don’t carry on carrying regrets, oh no, oh oh oh oh
Dm G
Somewhere there’s a room for us to speak alone
F G
And if it grieves you to stay here, just go, oh oh oh oh
Dm Em
For I have no spell on you, it’s all a ghost
Mm-mmm
(instrumental)
F G Dm Em F G
F G
I still have the things you gave...me
Dm G
Four anointing oils, the paper weight you made
Mm-mmm
F G
For sure I haven’t carried them
Dm G
Or buried them in the name of your ghost, my friend
F G
Don’t carry on carrying efforts; Don’t go! No oh oh oh
Dm G
Stay with me until I sleep within your host
F G
Or if it pleases you to leave me, just go, oh oh oh oh
Dm G
Stopping you would stifle your enchanting ghost
Mm-mmm
F G Dm G
