[Intro]
Am      Am      Am      Am
[Verse 1]
AmThis mess we make, Amthese hearts we break
FYou say "Memories, Cthese lines on your face"G  
AmI hate the silence, Amthe empty space
FThings we left behind, Cthings we misplacedG  
[Pre-Chorus]
FLost and alone, I know the feeAmling
Thought of us dancing on the ceiFling
But I'm just dancing and we're cFool
I gDmuess if he's got a funny sight to wGake
It's tAmaking your breath aFway
And Dmif he's got a funny way of sGaying
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna dAmance with you
Although that you wFant me to
Better to dDmance alone
Than to daGnce with a ghost
I'm not gonna dAmance with you
Not like I usFed to
Better to daDmnce alone
Than to daGnce with a ghost
[Post-Chorus]
(Dance with a ghost)
AmOh oh Amoh, oh Foh, oh oFh
[Verse 2]
AmStraight to the point, Amnothing to prove
FGive it all away, Cnothing to loseG  
AmYou can almost hear it, Amhear it through the wall
FTried to enjoy the feeling, Ctry not to fallG  
[Pre-Chorus]
FLost and alone, I know the fAmeeling
Thought of us dancing on the cFeiling
But I'm just dancing and we're cFool
I gDmuess if he's got a funny sight to wGake
It's tAmaking your breath aFway
And Dmif he's got a funny way of sGaying
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna daAmnce with you
Although that you wFant me to
Better to dDmance alone
Than to dGance with a ghost
I'm not gonna dAmance with you
Not like I usFed to
Better to daDmnce alone
Than to dGance with a ghost
[Post-Chorus]
AmOh oh Amoh, oh oFh, oh Foh (Dance with a ghost)
AmOh oh Amoh, oh Foh, oh oFh
[Bridge]
FEvery time I open my mouth
AmNothing really ever comes out
FTripping over my tongue
AmI miss before I even swallow
FGuess I'm trying to say that
If you want to you can stay
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna daAmnce with you
Although that you wFant me to
Better to dDmance alone
Than to daGnce with a ghost
I'm not gonna dAmance with you
Not like I usFed to
Better to daDmnce alone
Than to daGnce with a ghost
[Post-Chorus]
AmOh oh Amoh, oh Foh, oh Foh (Dance with a ghost)
AmOh oh Amoh, oh Foh, oh Foh (Dance with a ghost)
