Verse 1:

Em          C          Am             Bm
Say you stay at home, alone with the flu
Em                C  Am             Bm
Find out from friends that wasn't true
Em          C                       Am      Bm
Go out at night with your headphones on, again
Em                       C             Am       Bm
And walk through the Manhattan valleys of, the dead

 
Chorus:

               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
    Am                     C   Dm                    G
But I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else


Verse 2:

Em         C         Am             Bm
You said I came close as anyone's come
Em           C    Am                 Bm
to live underwater for more than a month
Em               C             Am       Bm
  You said it was not inside my heart, it was
Em                    C          Am        Bm
  You said it should tear a kid apart, it does


Chorus:
                  
               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
    Am                     C   Dm                    G
But I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else
 Am                   C     Dm                    G
I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else


Bridge:

        Am                C                            Em
I had a hole in the middle where the lightning went through it
           G
told my friends not to worry
Am        C                              Em
I had a hole in the middle someone's sideshow wouldn't do it 
             G
I told my friends not to worry


Chorus:

               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
