The Path
Capo 2
Relative Chords: E, F#, A,  B  
EThere's ghost on every F#corner 
  ABut most of them are Eyou 
Some of them are F#shadows 
AOf dreams that never came Etrue.
I went over the F#mmountains
I went ASouther than the ESouth.
I tried living in a F#mreal ghost town
But Anone of it worked Eout!
A, B, ( E2 measures)
A, B, ( E2 measures)
EYou were sleeping all F#day
AYou were sleeping all Enight
That's why when I bumped into you 
On F#Kirkwood and Rodgers it Atook me by sEurprise.
The spring was F#fat and the Aafternoon was Eripe. 
You gave me an awkward F#msmile, 
Said you were going for a Awalk and you said Egoodbye!
  AYour brother Bcalled me and he Etold me what you did
  AI tried to Bsee you, but they Ewouldn't let me in
  AI found the Btrail that you Eleft
  AI found the Bend of it, 
And followed Eit back to where it began and
Block after F#block, Adrop after Edrop
I walked the F#mpath that you AwalkEed!
Drop after F#drop, Ablock after Eblock
I walked the F#path that you AwalEked!
You know that I F#miss you and you Ahaunt me in these Estreets
It would be nice if I can fF#orget you
Or if yAou'd forget about Eme!
I could try to F#mrun away, try to gAet out of your Ereach
But I think I'd rather F#have your Apainful comEpany
Yeah I think I'd rather F#have your Apainful coEmpany
I Athink I'd rather Bhave you haunting Eme!
A, B, E
