53 bpm [Intro] Fm C Fm Db C5 Caug Fm [Verse 1]
       Fm    C          Fm          Db
'Twas Halloween and the ghosts were out,

    Fm   C            Fm         Ab
And everywhere they'd go, they'd shout,

      Gm7b5  C          Em7b5  Dm7b5
And though I covered my eyes I knew,

      Dbmaj7  Caug 
They'd go     away.
[Verse 2]
     Fm        C    Fm      Db
But fear's the only thing I saw,

    Fm         C           Fm       Ab
And three days later 'twas clear to all,

     Gm7b5   C     Em7b5  Dm7b5  Dbmaj7 Caug   Fm
That nothing is as scary  as    elec -  tion   day.
[Chorus]
        Eb/Bb   Absus4/Eb  Abmaj7
But the day     after is   darker,

     Gm7b5     C         Fm
And darker and darker it goes,

    G/B    Gdim/Bb   Fm/Ab      Cm/G
Who knows, maybe the plans will change,

    Csus4/F  Cm/Eb       Dm7b5    Ebaug7/Db Caug 
Who knows,   maybe he's  not      de -       ranged.
[Verse 3]
    Fm       C              Fm        Db
The news men know what they know, but they,

     Fm   C         Fm        Ab
Know even less than what they say,

    Gm7b5   C        Em7b5 Dm7b5
And I don't know who I can trust,

        Dbmaj7    Caug 
For the come what may.
[Verse 4]
       Fm    C            Fm   Db
'cause we believed in our candidate,

    Fm   C             Fm     Ab
But even more it's the one we hate,
cv I needed someone I could shake,
   Dbmaj7  Caug   Fm
On elec -  tion   day.
[Chorus]
        Eb/Bb   Absus4/Eb  Abmaj7
But the day     after is   darker,

     Gm7b5     C         Fm
And deeper and deeper we go,

    G/B    Gdim/Bb    Ab    G7b13
Who knows, maybe it's all a dream,

    Cm/Eb  Cm/D         Ab/Db  Abdim/C  Caug b9
Who knows  if I'll wake up     and      scream.
[Instrumental] Fm C7 Fm Db Fm C7 Fm Ab Gm7b5 C7 Em7b5 Dm7b5 Dbmaj7 Caug Fm [Verse 5]
  Fm      C                   Fm    Db
I love the things that you've given me,

  Fm      C      Fm       Ab
I cherish you my dear country,

    Gm7b5     C        Em7b5  Dm7b5    
But sometimes I don't under - stand,

    Dbmaj7    Caug 
The way   we  play.
[Verse 6]
  Fm       C                  Fm    Db
I love the things that you've given me,

    Fm      C        Fm   Ab
And most of all that I am free,

   Gm7b5   C         Em7b5  Dm7b5 
To have a  song that I  can sing,

   Dbmaj7   Caug   Fm
On elec -   tion   day.
