C add 9, G major

Ghost on the street today

C add 9, G major

doorways of jackson square

C add 9, G major

in tinsel and tap shoes

C add 9, G major

mardi gras beads in her hair

C add 9, G major

'n down to the graveyard

she wrung out her hands

C add 9, G major

as if he will meet her

add 9, major major, ,

all day she stands

'cause a part of you, in me diiiiied

 ( add 9, major) x3

C add 9, G major

we wish ourselves beautiful

C add 9, G major

'n we cry in the night

C add 9, G major

and it's not the love you feel

C add 9, G major

but the fall from the heights

C add 9, G major

my personal ledges

C add 9, G major

afraid to look down

my crepe paper bridges

add 9, major major, ,

and no water to drown

and I see the lonely souls, searchin?

I'm a ghost on the streets today

C add 9, G major

surrounded by eyes

C add 9, G major

I feel them peer through me

C add 9, G major

and my harlequin disguise

C add 9, G major

if it makes you feel better

C add 9, G major

come join me a while

C add 9, G major

there's love in my open arms

add 9, major major, ,

there's love in my spirit smiles
