Am G F
I saw a ghost on the stairs
Am G F
And sheets on the tables and chairs
Am G F
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
Am F G
Even so, I don't know what to think
Dm C G
I've been longing for
F C G
Daisies to push through the floor
Dm 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 F
That bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic
Am F G
Heaven knows, I could really use a friend
C C Dm F
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
C C F G
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
C C Dm F
Quartet of crickets chime in for the Chorus
Dm C F G
If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?
Interlude -x2-: Dm Am C G
Dm C G
I've been longing for
F C G
Daisies to push through the floor
Dm 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
Dm Eb Bb F
Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet
Ab Eb F
And give me a ghost of a smile
Dm Eb Bb F
Show me your teeth 'cause you're teddy beneath
Ab Eb F
So just grin and bear it a while
Ab Eb F
Just grin and bear it a while
Bb Bb Cm Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb Bb Eb F
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Bb Bb Cm Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the Chorus

If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?
Interlude -x2-: Cm Gm Bb F
Cm Bb F
To-night I'm busting out
Dm C G
Of this old haunted house
Cm Bb F
'Cause I'm sick of waiting for
Dm C Bb F
All the spider webs to grow all around me
Eb Bb F
'Cause I don't feel dead anymore
Eb Gm F
And I'm not afraid anymore
Bb Bb Cm Eb
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
Bb Bb Eb F
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Bb Bb Cm Eb
Quartet of crickets chime in for the Chorus
Cm Bb Eb F
If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?
Interlude: Gm Gm Bb C7 Eb Ebm

If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?
