Lyrics
I (A)keep (F#m)go ing to (E)the riv er to pray ’cause I (A)need (F#m)some thin’ that (E)can wash out the pain.
And at (A)most, I’m (F#m)sleep in’ all (E)these de mons a way.
But your (A)ghost, the (F#m)ghost of you, (E)it keeps me a wake.
My friends had you (F#m)fig ured out.
Yeah, they saw what’s in side of you.
You tried hid ing an (D)oth er you, but your e vil was (Bm)com in’ through.
These eyes sit tin’ (F#m)on the wall, they watch ev ’ry move I make.
Bright light liv in’ (D)in the shade, your cold heart makes my (Bm)spir it shake, ooh.
I had to go through hell to prove I’m (F#m)not in sane.
Had to meet the dev il just to know his name.
And that’s when my love was burn in’.
Yeah, it’s still burn in’.
I (A)keep (F#m)go ing to (E)the riv er to pray ’cause I (A)need (F#m)some thin’ that (E)can wash out the pain.
And at (A)most, I’m (F#m)sleep in’ all (E)these de mons a way.
But your (A)ghost, the (F#m)ghost of you, (E)it keeps me a wake.
I (A)keep (F#m)go ing to (E)the riv er to pray ’cause I (A)need (F#m)some thin’ that (E)can wash out the pain.
And at (A)most, I’m (F#m)sleep in’ all (E)these de mons a way.
But your (A)ghost, the (F#m)ghost of (CN.C.)you, it keeps me a wake.
Each time that I (F#m)think you’re gone, I turn a round and you’re creep in’ in.
And I let you un (D)der my skin ’cause I love liv in’ (Bm)in the sin.
Boy, you nev er (F#m)told me true love was going to hurt.
True pain I don’t de serve.
Truth is that I (Bm)nev er learn, ooh.
Give up the ghost.
Give up the ghost.
Give up the ghost.
Stop the haunt ing, ba by.
Give up the ghost.
Give up the ghost.
Give up the ghost.
No more haunt ing, ba by.
I keep go in’ to the riv er.
I (A)keep (F#m)go ing to (E)the riv er to pray ’cause I (A)need (F#m)some thin’ that (E)can wash out the pain.
And at (A)most, I’m (F#m)sleep in’ all (E)these de mons a way.
