Lyrics by F.Xavier Atencio
Am
When the crypt goes creak, 
B7
And the tombstones quake. 
Am                    Bb
Spooks come out for a swinging wake. 
Am             F
Happy haunts materialize, 
Am           F7
And begin to vocalize. 
Am                   E7          Am                
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.
Am
Now don't close your eyes, 
B7
And don't try to hide. 
Am                       Bb
Or a silly spook may sit by your side. 
Am            F
Shrouded in a daft disguise, 
Am              F7
They pretend to terrorize. 
Am                   E7           Am
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.

Intro F7
Bbm                              C7
As the moon climbs high o'er the dead oak tree, 
Bbm                   B
Spooks arrive for the midnight spree. 
Bbm
Creepy creeps with eerie eyes, 
                    Gb7
Start to shriek and harmonize. 
Bbm                  F7          Bbm
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.
Change to Bm
Bm                           C#7
When you hear the knell of a requiem bell, 
Bm                      C
Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell. 
Bm             G
Restless bones etherialize, 
Bm                G7
Rise as spooks of every size.
