  INTRO

   Dm  A#  C  Dm
He------------llo, 
         A#           C    Dm 
I am the ghost of troubled Joe
            A#         C     Dm                  A#
Hung by his pretty neck some eighteen months ago
               C Dm            A#            
I travelled to a mystical time zone
             C  Dm                  A#
And I missed my bed and I soon came home


  VERSE I

     C     Dm                               A#           C
They said "there's too much caffine in your bloodstream"
      Dm                         A#
And a lack of real spice in your life"
                  C Dm                A#  
I  said "leave me alone because I'm alright dad,
C  Dm                       A#   C
Surprised to still be on my own"


  CHORUS I

D#                   Dm*
Ooh, but don't mention love
    D#                           Dm7  A#* A
I'd hate the pain of the strain again


  VERSE II

  Dm                         A#                   C     Dm
A rush and a push and the land that we stand on is ours
                 A#                C Dm
It has been before, so it shall be again
                   A#              C   Dm
And people who are uglier than you and I
               A#                 C
They take what they need and just leave


  CHORUS II

D#                   Dm*
Ooh, but don't mention love
    D#                                    Dm7  A#* A
I'd hate the strain of the pain all over again


  VERSE III

  Dm                         A#                   C     Dm
A rush and a push and the land that we stand on is ours
                 A#                 C  Dm
It has been before, so why can't it be now?
                   A#              C   Dm
And people who are weaker than you and I
                    A#             C
They take what they want from life


  CHORUS III

D#                   Dm*
Ooh, but don't mention love
D#                   Dm7  A#* A
No, no, don't mention love


  VERSE IV

  Dm                         A#                   C     Dm
A rush and a push and the land that we stand on is ours
                 A#                      C     Dm
You youth may be gone but you're still a young man
                   A#
So phone me, phone me
C  Dm                      A#   C
So phone me, phone me, phone me


  OUTRO

D#                 Dm*
Ooh, I think I'm in love
D#                 Dm*
Ooh, I think I'm in love
D#                 Dm*
Ooh, I think I'm in love
D#                    Dm*
Uurrgh, I think I'm in love
