F Am C
I wanna go to the ocean and send a postcard of my loneliness
F Am C
Forgetting you is so elusive I run away but it’s always this
G F
You’re the only one I love
C G
It’s always been you
F Am
And I wish I was conscripted in the merchant marines
C G F
Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive, oh
F Am
And my sister keeps it simple she’s a shipboard cook
C G F
She can run a line, but if you take a look, it's not easy though
Am
'Cause I'm hoping you will find me
C
I keep hoping you will find me
Am
Hoping you will find me
C G - F
I keep hoping you will find me
C G - F
I'm always a ghost
F Am
I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some séance stunt
C
I keep an open mind but I think it’s just a front
G F
I want to believe it though
F Am
My sister says "Forget her boy, that's all that you need"
C
She pitches magical elixirs, potions full of mead
G
For a broken heart
F
It's too late for that
C
And I try to keep it simple; I try to keep it true
G F
But it’s always been you; it’s always been you
C
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
G F G F
It was all just a joke; It's all just a boast, yeah yeah yeah, oh
C G - F
I'm always a ghost
A(m) C

Am
You're about as haunted as a darkened basement
C
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement
G
She may have her secrets, she'll never tell
F
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell
Am
I heard there's something new; she starts to talk
C
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk
G
And I say, what do you fear what are you running from
F
The only thing I fear is when I go numb
Am
And I'm hoping you will find me
C
I keep hoping you will find me
