=====Intro======

[Eb] [Bb7] [C#] [Bbsus2]

[Eb]all around me

[Bb7]in the air hangs a wreath

[C#]                         (9, 8, 6 on [E])
of blackest bile, and smoke

[Bbsus2]that I can see

[Eb]I open up my heart

[Bb7]and let it all in

[C#]and it kills all my love

[Bbsus2]and hope for everyone

and it ha[Bb5]sn't been [Bbsus2]easy on[C#] you, [Bb5]

[Bb5]I know[Bbsus2] that mor[C#]e than most.[Bb5]

[Bb5]I am[Bbsus2] born to b[C#]e alone,[Bb5]

[Bb5]I am [Bbsus2]just some l[C#]onely ghost  [Bb7]

======interlude======

[Eb] [Bb7] [C#] [Bbsus2]

[Eb]all around us

[Bb7]hangs an air of darkest doom,

[C#]and it flows out my lungs

[Bbsus2]and slowly fills the room

[Eb]I open up my heart

[Bb7]and stick my fingers in,

[C#]but you will never want

[Bbsus2]what I have to give

and it ha[Bb5]sn't been [Bbsus2]easy on[C#] you, [Bb5]

[Bb5]I know[Bbsus2] that mor[C#]e than most.[Bb5]

[Bb5]I am[Bbsus2] born to b[C#]e alone,[Bb5]

[Bb5]I am [Bbsus2]just some l[C#]onely ghost  [Bb7]
