Bm G
I will be the one to let this roof cave in on me
Bm G
Buried in this house, this wooden graveyard by the sea
Bm A
We push away our families to understand our needs
G Gm
The love and all the hate I used to hold in front of me
Bm G
Restless nights, all dizzy spells, all sand between my sheets
Bm G
Showing signs of thirst like dried-out, boardwalk-blistered feet
Bm G
And now I know I never knew about you, only me
Bm G
We carried this inside like some disease we couldn't beat
D
But we could work, try to live and get by
G
To make our family in this second-floor apartment
Bb
Standing on the threshold, body out in flesh, cold
D
Go ahead and celebrate the things you lost
D
Try to breathe, to flex and release
G
To cry and work in such an underrated ‘partment
Bb
Moments are a lifetime, nothing in a straight line
D
This could take a little while just to shake things off
D Bb
Down by water's edge, under the dying tree
G D
I let my body slip, so dead inside of me
D Bb
But when I came around, some kind of murky face
Bm
I don't ever want to be alone like this
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/v/voxtrot/ghost_crd.html ]
Bm G
And I will tuck into you like I always long to be
Bm G
Shadows just a shade of black now, darkness in degree
Bm G
Oh it was you who knew we first saw this wasn't meant for kids like me
Bm G
Some hoodoo natural force we only feel we never see
D
But as we break in time, a brotherly sigh
G
Their heads got smaller ‘till they vanished into silence
Bb
Sinking into white foam, running to a new home
D
They can only understand the things we see
D
Just cease, desist, and leave me like this
G
Their eyes wide open, the beauty of the bright lights
Bb
Standing on a threshold, body out in flesh, cold
D
I don't ever want to be alone like this, no
D C#m Bm
I have no choice but to be vicious on my feet
Bb
I never sleep, I never eat
D
I am learning how to be lost completely
D A
But I want to be found,
Bm
We crave things we push away
Bb
These patterns cut like every day
D
I need you to reach; I need you to need me
D Bm
Down by water's edge, under a dying tree
G D
I let my body slip, so dead inside of me
D Bm
But when I came around some kind of murky face
G D
Shaking my bones put me back in my place
D Bm
I don't ever want to be alone like this
G D
For me, by the presence of the things I miss
D Bm
I don't ever want to be alone like this
G D
For me, by the presence of the things I miss
D Bm G
Well, I am becoming the ghost of myself
D Bm G
Oh, I am becoming a ghost of myself
D Bm G
Trapped little secrets, little things we never tell
D Bm G
Now I am becoming the ghost of myself
End on D
