There's a ghost in my bedroom
   E
it haunts me at night
     Am           G            F
I've asked him to leave but he keeps stopping by
Dm                         G
Just when I think that I'm alone
   C        E
it shows up again
           Am
but with a friend this time
    F                   G
and now this is getting old
                     C E Am
I don't know what to do
F            G                (C)
Metaphorically, this ghost is you

         C                      E
Now this ghost in my bedroom it gives me advice
    Am           G
And promised one day
              F
that it would teach me to fly
Dm                    G
Now that I think I'm alone
   C            E         Am
It comes out my way, with a devil's smile
          F              G
singing, "this is now my home"
                    C E Am
You're my wish come true
         F                 G
When you reach that golden cloud
        (C)
I'll be there with you

              F               C
If there were monsters in the closet
             G                   Am   G
Well I don't think I would be surprised
           F                   C
I hear 'em call out from my window
            G
They try to trick me to come outside (I won't let you down)
F                C
   We talked all day
             G                  Am      G          F
I can't tell if he's real, or a made up version of her again
          C                     G
I'm never alone, cause I've got you
                   C          E
Get this out of my head!


Am G F  Dm  G  C E Am G


           F             G                  C E Am
Now I will waste away my love, on something new
           F            G
If there's only one way out,
                 C         G
I'll come back for you.


     F                   C
If I get stuck out there forever
          G                  Am G
tell everyone that I say goodbye
       F                C                    G
Now my lifelong list of wish is that I could bring you back
                         F
but we don't belong here now.
        C                   G                        Am G
If it stays, well that just means I've got nine more days
          F                 C
till I go back to my little world
                G
where it's just me and my imaginary friend


C  E  Am  F  (x2)


C                                 E
   So go out and love, find a new direction
                                   Am
   (have my heart, keep it for protection)
                             F
   Don't get stuck on your way
                            (C)
   The other side's a scary place
C                               E
   (Do your best not to be afraid)
                             Am
   Lose it all when we run away
                         F
   (Let go of the little things you know I do)


          C
There's a ghost in my bedroom
          E
(and he's dying to meet you)
               Am
god knows he's heard all about you
             F
I guess he's friendly enough though


I've seen him
C                  E           Am
(Loving, sneaking, roses in your bed)
                         F
He says he won't let you down

He will, he will, he will


           C                   E     Am      F
(There's a ghost in my bedroom ahhhhhh)
           C                   E     Am      F
(There's a ghost in my bedroom ahhhhhh)


C               E            Am
Softly, slowly, how could I forget?
              F
I want you to notice I let go
C               E            Am
Softly, slowly, how could I forget?
              F
I want you to notice I let go


           C                   E     Am      F
(There's a ghost in my bedroom ahhhhhh)
