[Verse 1]
A E A D
Death has always fascinated me, but nothing could have
E A
prepared us for that day
D E F#m D
Are you better off without me now that time is standing still?
A E A
I'm sorry my love that I had to go away
[Verse 2]
A E A
But I followed you to work the other day
D E A
It amazes me how cruel this world can be
D E F#m D
You spend your day helping the ungrateful and the sick
A E A
But nothing you could do could revive me
[Chorus]
A E F#m D
And I'll follow you around, you don't even know
A E A
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
A E F#m D
And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
A E A
But I'll follow you until it's your time
[Verse 3]
A E A
I noticed that our oldest has been getting picked on
D E A
I'm frustrated, is there nothing I can do?
D E A D
I wish I had the power to bring you all to me
A E A
Or figure out a way to get back to you
[Verse 4]
A E A
Who was that gentleman at the front door?
D E A
He's been coming 'round for a month or so
D E F#m D
Does he help you forget the sadness in your heart?
A E A
Well it's breaking mine and I wish that he would go
[Verse 5]
A E A
We've heard it said a million times or more
D E A
You don't know what you've got 'til it ain't there
D E F#m D
On the outside looking in, let me go back there again
A E A
But I'll follow you until you meet me here
[Chorus]
A E F#m D
And I'll follow you around, you don't even know
A E A
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
A E F#m D
And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
A E A
But I'll follow you until it's your time
A E F#m D
And I'll follow you around, you don't even know
A E A
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
A E F#m D
And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
A E A
But I'll follow you until it's your time
[Outro]
A E F#m D
I’m just a phantom in your miiiiiiiiiiiiiind
A E A
I’m just a phantom in your mind
