Ghosts In Empty Houses
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
A E C#m B E (x4)
[Verse 1]
E B E
In this country at any given time
E
There are two million empty houses
E
And one of them once was mine
E A E
Yeah there were twelve million spirits drifting
E C#m E
Through twelve million empty rooms
E A
Waving their ghostly arms at the stars
E C#m E
And howling sad songs in the light of a crescent moon
E B E C#m
Yeah they claw at the air and they scream
C#m
But they don't make a sound
A B C#m
They should've exercised their demons and their secrets
C#m A
While they were around
[Chorus]
E B A
Don't you think it's funny how quickly things can turn around
E B A E
All our lives were drifting like ghosts inside an empty house
B C#m A
Everything is falling to pieces and it's just as well
B C#m
Because every little piece of heaven brings a little piece of hell
A E C#m E (x2)
[Verse 2]
E
In my darkest hour when death is knocking at my door
E
I can feel the tug of a thousand fingers
E
But what are the ghosts here for?
A C#m E
They say: Beware, be wary
C#m E
Of secrets that you may keep
E A E
Cause if they're any indication of the sorrow it brings you
E C#m E
Then don't take your demons to sleep
E B
Then if you take a little time
C#m A
To stop and think about yourself
A B
You just might find that the
B C#m A
Direction that you're headed is closer to hell
[Chorus]
E B A
Don't you think it's funny how quickly things can turn around
E B A E
All our lives were drifting like ghosts inside an empty house
B C#m A
Everything is falling to pieces and it's just as well
B C#m
Because every little piece of heaven brings a little piece of hell
E B A (x2) B C#m A (x2)
A E A
So you might find yourself drifting
A
Like a ghost inside empty house after empty house
E
Looking for someone but lately finding not a soul to tell
