INTRO : Am   Dm  
VERSE :
AmLife begins with the first glance
The first kiss and the first dance
DmAll of us are wondering why we're here
In the crystal ballroom underneath the chandelier
AmWet the glass until the glasses sing
We punish our hearts 'til the heart bells ring
DmCos' where we come from we're not always kind
The human soul is what love leaves behind
CHORUS :
We're the ghFosts of love and we hDmaunt this place
We're the ghAmosts of love in evCery face
In the balFlroom of the cryDmstal light
AmEveryone is here with Cme tonight
FEvery...oEmne.. but youAm  
MIDDLE : Am  Dm  
VERSE 2 :
AmOur first chance is their last dance
Our life is shaped by another's hands
DmButtoning and unbuttoning a cold cold dress
Stopping and unstopping every cold caress
AmBorn for bliss born for this
Every human life begins with a kiss
DmA kiss by every kind of possibility
And everyone is here tonight with me
CHORUS :
We're the ghFosts of love and we hDmaunt this place
We're the ghAmosts of love in evCery face
In the balFlroom of the cryDmstal light
AmEveryone is here with Cme tonight
Solo : F   Dm   Am   Cx3
FEvery...oEmne.. but youAm  
OUTRO: Am  Dm
