[Intro] G D Bm D G D Bm [Verse] D Bm I'm sailin' away to a place A I'm afraid of G D The dawn isn't here, Em The sun hasn't rose Bm I'm drinkin' my days with A G The coastal longshoreman D They got money to make and Em Children back home D The last that I heard, Bm You were down in New Orleans D Em Bm Workin' your days at The Print D I drink 'til I drown and Bm D I smoke 'til I'm burnin' G A Bm Your hands are all over my scent D Bm I worry for you, you worry for me Em D And it's fine if we know Bm We won't change D Collect every dream in Bm D These old empty pockets Em Bm D Bm A In hope that I'll need them some day [Chorus] Bm But the wreckage of you, Em I no longer reside in D And the bridges have Em Bm Long since been burnt D The ash of the home that G I started the fire in D Bm It starts to return to the Earth D I'm leavin' this town and Bm I'm changin' my address G D Em I know that you'll come if you want D It's not Halloween, but the Ghost you're dressed up as Bm Sure knows how to haunt, yes, Em It knows how to haunt [Post-Chorus] G Em Mm-hmm-mm [Verse] G D It's an ode to the hole that Bm I found myself stuck in G D Em A song for the grave that I dug Bm There's a murder of crows in The low light off Boston D Em And I see your face in each one Bm I'm losin' myself in the tiniest objects D Bm I'm seein' my life on a screen G D Bm I'm hearin' your voice in a Strange foreign language Em A Bm If only I learned how to speak [Chorus] Bm But the wreckage of you, Em I no longer reside in D And the bridges have long Em Since been burnt D The ash of the home that G I started the fire in D Bm It starts to return to the Earth D I'm leavin' this town and Bm I'm changin' my address G D Em I know that you'll come if you want D It's not Halloween, but the Ghost you're dressed up as Bm Sure knows how to haunt, yes, Em It knows how to haunt [Post-Chorus] G Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh) Bm You know how to haunt Em Know how to haunt D Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh) Bm Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh, ooh, ooh) D Ah, ooh Bm Mm-hmm-mm (Ah-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) [Outro] G D I know that you fear that Bm I'm wicked and weary D Em I know that you fearin' the end D But I only tell the truth when Bm I'm sure that I'm lyin' D Bm So I'm settin' sail once again
