Intro:
D    A   Gbm           E          D
 I keep going to the river to pray
            A  Gbm                  E             D
 'Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
         A          Gbm                E        D
 And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
            A          Gbm              E
 But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake
 
Verse:
                     Gbm
 My friends had you figured out
 
 Yeah they saw what's inside of you
                     D
 Trying to hide in another you
                   Bm
 But your evil was coming through
                    Gbm
 These guys sitting on the wall
 
 They watch every move I make
                     D
 Bright light living in the shade
                        Bm
 You go hard makes the spirit shake
 
 
A         Bm
 I had to go through hell to prove
     Gbm
 I'm not insane
         D
 Had to meet the devil just to know his name
                      E
 And that's where my love was burning
 
 Yeah it's still burning

Verse:
                   Gbm
Each time that I think you go
 
I turn around and you're creeping in
                 D
And I let you under my skin
                     Bm
'Cause I love living in a sin
               Gbm
Boy you never told me
 
True love was going to hurt
                   D
True pain that I don't deserve
                Bm
Truth is that I never learn

 Give up the ghost
                   E

 No more haunting baby
 
 I keep going to the river
