Ghost Of You - Dönut Larson

[Intro]

Am E7 F E

[verse 1]

Am E7 F E

I did cocaine in Memphis, Tennessee

Am E7 F E

Underneath the ghost of Elvis Presley

Am E7 F E

No, he didn't do a goddamn thing for me

N.C.

Except make me wanna go and do more

[verse 2]

Am E7 F E

It's a habit that I like to abuse

Am B7 F E

After a long, hard day of being misused

Am E7

My socks are gone

F E

Somebody stole my shoes

N.C.

And now my feet are cracked

and blistered and sore

[verse 3]

Am E7 F E

Wrap me up another needle and spoon

Am E7 F E

I'll be there soon, up there with you, ooh

Am E7 F E

Tell me what you think, I should do

N.C.

Oh, to think about,

D D#

when all I think about is you

[interlude]

Am E7 F E

[verse 4]

E Am E7

()

She was the circumstance

F E

That I could not surpass

Am E7

All my viable solutions

F E

must have truly sounded crass

Am E7

Well, I stood up on my feet,

F E

I fell back down on my ass

Am E7

They must see I'm sick

F E

Twisted to the core

[verse 5]

Am E7 F E

It's something I don't know how to explain

Am E7

How this parasite inside me's

F E

rearranging my entire brain

Am E7

I swear sometimes I feel

F E

As though I've gone insane

N.C.

Then I see I really wanted more

[verse 6]

Am E7 F E

Looks like I've dug this hole I'm in too soon

Am E7

I ain't got no moons to light this road

F E

That I've been travelling blue

Am E7

I've been stuck here with these folks

F E

That I know

N.C.

Who left that ghost behind to show me

F E

How to smile when I'm thinking of you

[outro]

Am E7 F E

Yeah, with these ghosts of you

Yeah, with these ghosts of you-ooh-ohh
