Chords: D [xxx323]
G [23xxx3]
Bm[x24432]
Bm/G [3244xx]
D G
This guy could save the world with both hands behind his back
Bm Bm/G
And still emerge with ten times the courage that others lack
D G
I'm sick of wallowing here in my own self pity
Bm Bm/G
Feet in the countryside, head in the city
D G
Tall buildings, bright lights, bright cars,
Bm Bm/G
But more importantly more importantly that's where you are
D G
I'll send you postcards from my head,
Bm Bm/G
Thinking bout you while my cheeks go red
Em A7
You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
Em A7
But you can haunt me if you like
D A Em G
I need some help to complete this task,
D A Em G
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
D A Em G
I'm haunted here, I'm haunted here, without you dear,
D A Em G Gm
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
D G
Someone once said, that a story once told
Bm Bm/G
That these streets, these streets are paved with gold
D G
But unless you're standing on them, or sitting on your thrown
Bm Bm/G
They mean nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing but stone
D G
Maybe you'll never know just how I feel,
Bm Bm/G
Maybe you'll never know maybe that's the appeal
D G
But walls look weird without you sitting on top
Bm Bm/G
I never meant to start and now I can't stop
Em A7
You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
Em A7
But you can haunt me if you like
D A Em G
I need some help to complete this task,
D A Em G
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
D A Em G
I'm haunted here, I'm haunted here, without you dear,
D A Em G Gm
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
A G
If you always go slow than you'll probably never fall
A G
but if you never go fast than you'll never feel tall
A G
If you always go slow than you'll probably never get hurt,
A G
but if you never go fast you'll never feel on top of the world x2
Em A7
You're not a ghost
Em A7
But you can haunt me if you like
D A Em G
I need some help to complete this task,
D A Em G
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
D A Em G
I'm haunted here, I'm haunted here, without you dear,
D A Em G Gm
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
D G
This sounds like a love song but its not,
Bm Bm/G
Cause in the end, the girl gets caught
D G
And will they be together in the end
Bm Bm/G
Well I wish I could tell you that my friend

version 2
No Capo!
Bm/G : Just a regular Bminor with a G bass, 3244xx (last strings will end up getting
muted if you stretch your middle finger over to the 3rd fret of the low E string to give
the G bass sound)
Verses:
D G Bm Bm/G (fingering for this chord above)
Prechorus: "you're not a ghost.."
Em A7
(Hammering on the second fret of the high string when playing the Eminor chord here)
Chorus
D A Em G x 4
> Gminor
Bridge: "if you always go slow.."
Just A G all the way through really!
lyrics__
This guy could save the world with both hands behind his back
And still emerge with ten times the courage that others lack
I'm sick of wallowing here in my own self pity
Feet in the countryside, head in the city
Tall buildings bright lights bright cars,
But more importantly more importantly that's where you are
I'll send you postcards from my head,
Thinking bout you while my cheeks go red
You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
But you can haunt me if you like
CHORUS
I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
Someone once said, that a story once told
That these streets these streets are paved with gold
But unless you're standing on them, or sitting on your thrown
They mean nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing but stone
Maybe you'll never know just how i feel,
Maybe you'll never know maybe thats the appeal
But walls look weird without you sitting on top
Never meant to start and now I can't stop
You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
But you can haunt me if you like
I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
If you always go slow than you'll probably never fall
but if you never go fast than you'll never feel tall
If you always go slow than you'll never get hurt,
but if you never go fast you'll never feel on top of the world x2
You're not a ghost
But you can haunt me if you like
I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
This sounds like a love song but its not,
Cause in the end, the girl gets caught
And will they be together in the end
Well I wish I could tell you that my friend
