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
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

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
