Jeff Rosenstock – To Be A Ghost (Guitar)

E                                    C#m
Fuck off, the internet. I’m tired of circling

E                                          C#m
amongst apologists who love ignoring the reality

E                               C#m      B
of unarmed civilians executed publicly.

B            A           F#7
  They want you to be a ghost

           E             C#7
when they rob you of your hope,

               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.

E                                 C#m
Born as a data mine for targeted marketing,

E                                                   C#m
and no one will listen up until you become a hashtag or a meme

E                                         C#m     B
but hate’s not a fad that dies with its virality.

B            A           F#7
  They want you to be a ghost

           E             C#7
when they rob you of your hope,

               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.

C#m          D                     E           Bbdim
I rush to my phone because I don’t wanna feel alone.

                   G           D               E
They forced us to grow into a world without a soul.

E                                                C#m    B
Your frozen with dread as their chatter becomes deafening.

           A              F#m
If you’re tired of being told

             E                C#m
to stop complaining about the cold,

            A               F#
burn those fuckers in their homes.

             E                     C#m
Burst their bubble and break their bones.

             A           F#m
  They want you to be a ghost

           E           C#m
They want you to be a ghost,

               A                       F#m                                 E
but we’ve got power ‘cause they can’t stop the things that they refuse to see.
