The Ghosts That Haunt Me

[G]There's a skeleton, i[Em7]n everyb[D]ody's [Cadd9]closet
[D]I can think of o[Em7]ne or two in [Cadd9]my own room
[G]But I would like to [Em7]introduce [D]them[Cadd9] both to you
[D]Shake their bony [Em7]hands and so di[Cadd9]spell the gloom

Cause [D]your so [Em7]kind
I know you [D]would not [Cadd9]mind
You'd[G] send away the [Em7]ghosts that haunt me[D] no[Cadd9]w
And the [D]things I [Em7]fear
Just wouldn't se[D]em so [Cadd9]near
And [G]when I stroll out [Em7]late at night
There would be nothin' [D]rattlin' at my he[Cadd9]els    [G]

[G]There are night when all my [Em7]aching b[D]ones won[Cadd9]'t let me sleep
And [D]demons come to [Em7]plague me as I l[Cadd9]ie in bed
[G]But I know if you wer[Em7]e sleeping [D]there besi[Cadd9]de me then
That yo[D]u would fend them [Em7]off and they would [Cadd9]let me rest
Cause [D]your so [Em7]kind
I know you [D]would not [Cadd9]mind
You'd [G]send away the [Em7]ghosts that haunt me [D]no[Cadd9]w
And the[D] things I [Em7]fear
Just wouldn't s[D]eem so [Cadd9]near
And [G]when I stroll out [Em7]late at night
There would be nothin' [D]rattlin' at my [Cadd9]heels

[D]There are [Em7]nights
When the [D]wind comes howling through [Cadd9]my old place
[D]I have d[Em7]reams
And I [D]wake up with the sweat pouring [Cadd9]down my face
And I w[G]ait..[Em7].......[D]
Till the morn[Cadd9]ing comes

[G]There will come a time I [Em7]fear when [D]all my [Cadd9]days are done
And [D]they will come coll[Em7]ect my corpse and [Cadd9]bury me
[G]And then I hope that you'll come [Em7]over t[D]o the Ot[Cadd9]her Side
[D]Join me in our [Em7]new life, keep me [Cadd9]company

Cause [D]your so [Em7]kind
I know you [D]would not [Cadd9]mind
You'd [G]send away the [Em7]ghosts that haunt me [D]now[Cadd9]
And the[D] things I [Em7]fear
Just wouldn't s[D]eem so [Cadd9]near
And [G]when I stroll out [Em7]late at night
There would be nothin' [D]rattlin' at my [Cadd9]heels   [G]
