BmI will be the one to let this rGoof cave in on me
BmBuried in this house, this wooden gravGeyard by the sea
We pBmush away our families to undeArstand our needs
The loGve and all the hate I used to hGmold in front of me
BmRestlesGs nights, all dizzy spells, all sand between my sheets
BmShowing signs of tGhirst like dried-out, boardwalk-blistered feet
And nBmow I know I Gnever knew about you, only me
We carBmried this Ginside like some disease we couldn't beat
But we could wDork, try to live and get by
To maGke our family in this second-floor apartment
BbStanding on the threshold, body out in flesh, cold
DGo ahead and celebrate the things you lost
DTry to breathe, to flex and release
GTo cry and work in such an underrated ‘partment
BbMoments are a lifetime, nothing in a straight line
DThis could take a little while just to shake things off
DDown by water's edge, Bbunder the dying tree
GI let my body slip, Dso dead inside of me
DBut when I came aroundBb, some kind of murky face
BmI don't ever want to be alone like this
And BmI will tuck iGnto you like I always long to be
BmShadows just a shadGe of black now, darkness in degree
Oh it was Bmyou who kGnew we first saw this wasn't meant for kids like me
Some hoBmodoo natural force we only fGeel we never see
DBut as we break in time, a brotherly sigh 
GTheir heads got smaller ‘till they vanished into silence
BbSinking into white foam, running to a new home
DThey can only understand the things we see
DJust cease, desist, and leave me like this
GTheir eyes wide open, the beauty of the bright lights
BbStanding on a threshold, body out in flesh, cold
DI don't ever want to be alone like this, no
DI have no cC#mhoice but to be viBmcious on my feet
I never slBbeep, I never eat
I am leDarning how to be lost completely
But I wDant to be foAund, 
We cBmrave things we push away
These patterns Bbcut like every day
I need yDou to reach; I need you to need me
DDown by water's edgeBm, under a dying tree
GI let my body slip, Dso dead inside of me
DBut when I came arounBmd some kind of murky face
GShaking my bones put me bDack in my place
DI don't ever want tBmo be alone like this
GFor me, by thDe presence of the things I miss
DI don'Bmt ever want to be alone like this
GFor meD, by the presence of the things I miss
DWell, I am becoBmming the ghGost of myself
DOh, I am becomBming a ghGost of myself
DTrapBmped Glittle secrets, little things we never tell
DNow I aBmm beGcoming the ghost of myself
End on D

C#m

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

But we could work, try to live and get by

To make our family in this second-floor apartment

Standing on the threshold, body out in flesh, cold

Go ahead and celebrate the things you lost

Try to breathe, to flex and release

To cry and work in such an underrated ‘partment

Moments are a lifetime, nothing in a straight line

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

I don't ever want to be alone like this

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

But as we break in time, a brotherly sigh

Their heads got smaller ‘till they vanished into silence

Sinking into white foam, running to a new home

They can only understand the things we see

Just cease, desist, and leave me like this

Their eyes wide open, the beauty of the bright lights

Standing on a threshold, body out in flesh, cold

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

I never sleep, I never eat

I am learning how to be lost completely

D A

But I want to be found,

We crave things we push away

These patterns cut like every day

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
