Dsus A
Ghost on the street today
Dsus A
doorways of jackson square
Dsus A
in tinsel and tap shoes
Dsus A
mardi gras beads in her hair
Dsus A
'n down to the graveyard
Dsus A
she wrung out her hands
Dsus A
as if he will meet her
Dsus A Abm
all day she stands
F#m7 Dsus
so don't leave me
A A - Abm
and I know you're justified

so don't leave me
Bsus [n] Dsus A A A
'cause a part of you, in me diiiiied
(Dsus - A - A - A) x3
Dsus A
we wish ourselves beautiful
Dsus A
'n we cry in the night
Dsus A
and it's not the love you feel
Dsus A
but the fall from the heights
Dsus A
my personal ledges
Dsus A
afraid to look down
Dsus A
my crepe paper bridges
Dsus A Abm
and no water to drown
F#m7 Dsus
so don't leave me
A A - Abm
and I know you're justified
F#m7 Dsus
so don't leave me
Bsus [n] Dsus A A A
'cause a part of you, in me diiiiied
(Dsus - A - A - A) x3
Esus Dsus A F#m7
and I see the lonely souls, searchin?
Esus Dsus Bsus~ [n]
but before the heartbreak rose,
(Dsus - A - A - A) x4
draw the curtain
Dsus A
I'm a ghost on the streets today
Dsus A
surrounded by eyes
Dsus A
I feel them peer through me
Dsus A
and my harlequin disguise
Dsus A
if it makes you feel better
Dsus A
come join me a while
Dsus A
there's love in my open arms
Dsus A Abm
there's love in my spirit smiles
F#m7 Dsus
so don't leave me
A A - Abm
and I know you're justified
F#m7 Dsus
so don't leave me
Bsus [n] Dsus A A A
'cause a part of you, in me diiiiied
