To Be A Ghost by Jeff Rosenstock


            To Be A Ghost 



Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo

[Verse 1]
E                                    C#m
Fuck off, the internet. I’m tired of circling
E                                          C#m
amongst apologists who love ignoring the reality
E                               C#m      B
of unarmed civilians executed publicly.
 
 
[Chorus]
B            A           F#7
  They want you to be a ghost
           E             C#7
when they rob you of your hope,
               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.
 
 
[Verse 2]
E                                 C#m
Born as a data mine for targeted marketing,
E                                                   C#m
and no one will listen up until you become a hashtag or a meme
E                                         C#m     B
but hate’s not a fad that dies with its virality.
 
 
[Chorus]
B            A           F#7
  They want you to be a ghost
           E             C#7
when they rob you of your hope,
               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.
 
 
[Bridge]
C#m          D                     E           Bbdim
I rush to my phone because I don’t wanna feel alone.
                   G           D               E
They forced us to grow into a world without a soul.

[Verse 3]
E                                                C#m    B
Your frozen with dread as their chatter becomes deafening.
           A              F#m
If you’re tired of being told
             E                C#m
to stop complaining about the cold,
            A               F#
burn those fuckers in their homes.
             E                     C#m
Burst their bubble and break their bones.
 
 
[Chorus]
             A           F#m
  They want you to be a ghost
           E           C#m
They want you to be a ghost,
               A                       F#m                                 E
but we’ve got power ‘cause they can’t stop the things that they refuse to see.

Fuck off, the internet
I'm tired of circling amongst apologists
Who love ignoring the reality
Of unarmed civilians executed publicly
They want you to be a ghost
When they rob you of your hope
But you've got power when they're not expecting anything
Born as a data mine for targeted marketing
And no one will listen up until you become a hashtag or a meme
But hate's not a fad that dies with its virality
They want you to be a ghost
When they rob you of your hope
But you've got power when they're not expecting anything
I rush to my phone
Because I don't wanna feel alone
They forced us to grow
Into a world without a soul
You're frozen with dread as their chatter becomes deafening
If you're tired of being told
To stop complaining about the cold
Burn those fuckers in their homes
Burst their bubble and break their bones
They want you to be a ghost
They want you to be a ghost
But we've got power
'Cause they can't stop the things that they refuse to see
