No capo - Am G F C G7 Bb Eb Gm Cm Ebm
Am      G            F
I saw a ghost on the stairs

    Am            G          F
And sheets on the tables and chairs

    Am         G             F             F
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink

     Am          F            G
Even so, I don’t know what to think

F         C       G
I’ve been longing for

F          C                G G7
Daisies to push through the floor

    F      C                Bb        F
And I wish plant life would grow all around me

   Eb           Bb      F
So I won’t feel dead anymore

   Eb           Bb      F
So I won’t feel dead anymore

Am      G           F
I saw a bear in the den

Am         G          F
Reading my textbooks again

    Am              G
And bats float like traffic

        F               F 
As they poured from the attic

       Am            F            G
Heaven knows I could really use a friend

C          G               F                G
I’d rather waltz than just walk through the forest

    C              G         F            G
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time

C          G              F          C
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus

   F         C             F                  G            F
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?

I’ve been longing for (I’ve been longing for)

F          C                G G7
Daisies to push through the floor (I’ve never really felt like this before)

F          C                Bb        F
And I wish plant life would grow all around me

   Eb           Bb      F
So I won’t feel dead anymore

   Eb           Bb      F
So I won’t feel dead anymore

     F         Bb
Your spirit is sweet

   Eb            F
So pull off your sheet

    Eb        Bb         F
And give me a ghost of a smile

F            Bb
Show me your teeth

                Eb      F
‘Cause you’re a teddy beneath

The brook babbles on about nothing at all

(Gm)             Bb                   F
A new leaf turns over; I’m willing to fall

  Eb        Bb      F
Tonight I’m busting out

   Bb       C       G
Of this old haunted house

           Eb      Bb      F  
‘Cause I’m sick of waiting for

          Bb     C       Bb        F
All those spider webs to grow all around me
