Misc Originals – Aj Puck - Ghost In The Hallway (Guitar)

 C
 Knees like thunder on the gravel walk home

 Am
 Blue moons blooming on porcelain bones

 F
 Mocked for dreams too soft to hold

 G
 Those ‘friends’ really had me sold

 Am
 Swore there was a shadow in the mirror glass

 F
 Talked like a brother I never had

 G
 WhOAooo-Whooa

 C
 I used to wish for a voice like thunder

 Am
 Someone to pull me out from under

 F
 Teach me to swing without throwing a punch

 G
 Show me love didn’t have to hurt that much

 C
 Time don’t walk in a straight clean line

 Am
 She twists, she turns, she takes her time

 F
 But I found you, late and true

 G C               D
 I finally found you

 C
 Summers went quiet, then colder too fast

 Am
 I filled the silence with records and cracked laughs

 F
 But you showed up like a match on the fourth try

 G
 Lit my name with a shout and I could take a sigh

 Am
 You didn’t ask why I looked away

 F                G
 You just stayed

 C
 I used to wish for a voice like thunder

 Am
 Someone to pull me out from under

 F
 Teach me to swing without throwing a punch

 G
 Show me love didn’t have to hurt that much

 C
 Time don’t walk in a straight clean line

 Am
 She twists, she turns, she takes her time

 F
 But I found you, late and true

 G C                          D
 Brother, I finally found you

 Am
 Now we’re shoulder to shoulder

 F
 Breaking bread with our bruises

 C
 You call me kid, I call you proof

 G
 That some scars are just excuses

 C
 So here’s to the ghost in the hallway,

 Am
 To the boy with the silence too loud

 F
 You were always waiting in the static

 G
 Now you’re laughing in the crowd

 C
 No more bruises on the mirror

 Am
 No more fighting to be seen

 F
 Just a name shouted back at me—

 G C                           C*
 The one I always needed it to be
