 Chords:
 
 
  /
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
I  need some help  to complete  this task,
Want  you here beside  me is that too  much to ask?
I'm  haunted here,  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 that's  the appeal
But  walls look weird without you sitting  on top
I  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,  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 probably 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,  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
