[Intro] Am G, F, E [Verse 1]
Am
Clouds came in the doorway

     G
And you shut me out

     F
You thought you heard a knocking

            E
But it was always your doubt

     Am                         G
And lies they go so easy; they always find you out

      F                                        E
They reveal our darkest secrets and split the night in goodbyes
[Pre-chorus]
Am                     Dm
You’ve been a sorrow, you’ve been a liar

     C                          E
And you cannot sleep when your house is on fire

     Am                  Dm
And I’ve been haunted, I’ve been wanted

C                    E
Running away from myself
[Chorus]
           F       C
And I can see your shadows

       G                Am
And I know that they are hollow

      F               C
And I know about your sorrows

     E
But tomorrow I’ll ask you again

          Dm
Am I the ghost of the past?

          G
Am I the love that will last?
[Instrumental] Am G, F, E [Verse 2]
    Am
Our thoughts came through the ceiling

    G
And beat us into pulp

F                                 E
You are all I needed, yet you’re nowhere near my soul

Am                       G
You see your reflection covered in the gold

F                                       E
But I see through your beauty, you are nothing but stone
[Pre-chorus]
Am                     Dm
You’ve been a sorrow, you’ve been a liar

    C                       E
And I cannot sleep when I'm not your desire

     Am                  Dm
And I’ve been wishing, I’ve been kissing

C                            E
The mirrors reflection of a ghost, and the girl goes home
[Chorus]
           F       C
And I can see your shadows

       G                Am
And I know that they are hollow

      F               C
And I know about your sorrows

     E
But tomorrow I’ll ask you again

          Dm
Am I the ghost of the past?

          G
Am I the love that will last?
[Bridge]
Am
Are you a ghost or am I a ghost?

G
We are all ghosts in this haunted home

F
I don’t know. Where have you gone?

    E
You float through my despair on your own
[Pre-chorus]
Am                    Dm
You’ve been a sorrow, you’ve been a liar

    C                      E
And I cannot sleep when I know that you're hiding

     Am                 Dm
And I’ve been wishing, I’ve been missing

     C            E  [STOP]
The touch of the past (And the girl she laughs)
[Outro] Am G, F, E
