{Verse 1}
N/C5                                         A5 F5 C5 E5
I never knew what made me do it
A5  D5       C5    G5                          A5 F5 C5 E5
  I just remember it was wrong
A5  D5       C5    G5                          A5 F5 C5 E5
  I've questioned why I put you through it
A5  D5       C5      G5                        A5 F5 C5 E5
  Who would have thought you'd be so strong?

{Bridge 1}
G5                                A5            (Riff 1)
  I should have wrapped you up and kept you safe
E5                               A5
  Instead I turned my back on you

{Chorus 1}
A5 F5 C5 G5

A5     F5     C5              G5               A5 F5 C5 G5
  You can't deny there's a spectre of love 
A5     F5     C5         G5
  He keeps a hawk and dove 
A5     F5     C5              E5             A5  (Riff 2 Three times)  E5
  You can't deny there's a spectre of love 

{Verse 2}
A5  D5       C5    G5                          A5 F5 C5 E5
  I keep your picture by my window 
A5  D5       C5    G5                          A5 F5 C5 E5
  You're smiling and you look so young 
A5  D5       C5    G5                          A5 F5 C5 E5
  If I could only speak your language 
A5  D5       C5           G5                   A5 F5 C5 E5
  You'd know that you're the only one 

{Bridge 2}
G5                                 A5            (Riff 1)
  I feel I'm stepping out in dead man's shoes
E5                               A5
  And only you can save me now 

 
{Chorus 2 (without Riff 2)}
A5 F5 C5 G5

A5     F5     C5              G5               A5 F5 C5 G5
  You can't deny there's a spectre of love 
A5     F5     C5         G5
  He keeps a hawk and dove 
A5     F5     C5              E5             F5
  You can't deny there's a spectre of love 

{Middle section}
F5                   G5  A5
  And if the time should come 
F5               E5      N/C5
  This can be undone - and I swear it

{Bridge 3}
G5                             A5                 (Riff 1)
  Salvation can be found in times like these 
E5                                 A5
  I just need you and I've found mine

  You can't deny there's a spectre of love
