John Cale – Ghost Story (Guitar)

      Em                    Dsus2
It was seven o'clock in the morning,

    Em                Dsus2
Too late to handle the day,

   Em                    Dsus2
At home, it was only two-thirty;

    Em                       Dsus2
The skin on my wrists turning grey.

  Em          A
He stood up, wished us good luck,

    Em                   A
He changed his attitude twice.

    Em                 A
The box in the corner shivered in fear,

        C                   F#m
It was tired and hungry for days...

    Em                          Dsus2
The next year she bought a new stomach,

    Em                   Dsus2
Of Liverpool, made in Detroit,

 Em                     Dsus2
Constantly passing old matches,

      Em               Dsus2
Some sentries and millionaires.

Em        A
Who did? Gallagher did,

     Em                   A
The same old thing every time.

Em        A
Gave up, more empty cups

           C                    F#m
They were tired and hungry for nights...

Em                    Dsus2
It made life a little easier,

Em                    Dsus2
To have Holland on the run.

Em                            Dsus2
It didn't take that long to forget her,

Em                  Dsus2
My old man and his gun.

 Em          A
Rushed out, lions about,

 Em               A
Wasting away on advice.

   Em                      A
A hundred and three, four hundred or more,

       C                             F#m
It'll haunt you for the rest of your life...
