E             
Ghost, ghost I know you live within me

Feel as you fly

In thunderclouds above the city

Into one that I

A
Loved with all that was left within me

Until we tore in two

E
Now wings and rings and there's so many

                 B A E
Waiting here for you

E
And she was born in a bottle rocket, 1929

With wings that ring around a socket
                     A
Right between her spine

A
All drenched in milk and holy water

                   E
Pouring from the sky

E
I know that she will live for ever

                 B
She won't ever die

B                                             E
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid

B
To watch the morning paper blow
      
                                 E
Into a hole where no one can escape

         A  E
Dee, de de de de...

E
And one day in New York City baby

A girl fell from the sky

From the top of a burning apartment building

                    A
Fourteen stories high

A
And when her spirit left her body

                   E
How it split the sun

E
I know that she will live for ever

All goes on and on and on and

B                                              E
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid

B
To watch the morning paper blow

                                E
Into a hole where no one can escape
         A E
Dee, de de de de...
