A G F
I saw a ghost on the stairs
A G F
And sheets on the tables and chairs
A G F
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
A F G
Even so I don't know what to think
F C G
I've been longing for
F C G
Daisies to push through the floor
F C Bb F
And I wish that plant life would grow all around me
Bb C F
So I won't feel dead anymore
Bb C F
So I won't feel dead anymore
A G F
I saw a bear in the den
A G F
Reading my textbooks again
A G F
Bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic
A 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 G
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
F C F G
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine
F,C, G, F
F,C,G,G
F C G
I've been longing for
F C G
Daisies to push through the floor
F C Bb F
And I wish that plant life would grow all around me
Bb F F
So I won't feel dead anymore
Bb F F
So I won't feel dead anymore
F Bb F C
Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet,
F Bb F
And give me a ghost of a smile
F Bb F C
Show me your teeth 'cause you're teddy beneath
F Bb F
So just grin and bear it a while
F Bb F
Just grin and bear it a while
Bb F Bb Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb F Bb Eb
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Bb F Bb Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
Bb F Bb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine
Eb,Bb, F, F
The book babbles on about nothing at all
Eb,Bb,F,F
New leaves turn over not willing to fall
Eb Bb F
Tonight I'm busting out
Bb F G
Of this old haunted house
Eb Bb F
Cause I'm sick of waiting for
Bb F C F
All the spider webs to grow all around me
Bb F F
Cause I don't feel dead anymore
F Bb F
And I'm not afraid anymore
Bb F Bb Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb F Bb Eb
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Bb F Bb Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
Bb F Bb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine
Bb F Bb Eb
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine
