[Verse]
C F C
Well there’s a man who dips his feet in holy water
F G
And so he throws - the rest of his body in
Am F C G6 Am
Says it’ll take more - than wading - to keep the memories fading
C G C
I’m at least - up to my neck in sin
F C G
He said I’m coming to terms with a ghost
C F C G
Learning to deal
Am F C
I’m gonna take what scares me the most
G C F C F
And turn it into something real
C F C
I try to go - to the hospice every Friday
F G
Sit in traffic - thicker than my blood
Am F C G6 Am
Try to know a man - that I never really knew
C G C
And swim away - from a forty year flood
F C G
And I’m coming to terms with a ghost
C F C G
Learning to deal
Am F C
I’m gonna take just what scares me the most
G C F C F Am G F G
And turn it into something real
C F C
Sometimes she takes - a little longer getting ready
F G
To pretend - there's someone to show
Am F C G6 Am
Did she ever find love - or did this town have enough
C G C
I kinda bet - she’ll never let you know
F C
But I can tell - from the caked on powdered makeup
F G
Covering wrinkles - from smoking away tears
Am F C G6 Am
She wants it either way - and I want so bad to say
C G C
Love yourself - for once - my dear
F C G
She’s coming to terms with a ghost
C F C G
She’s learning to deal
Am F C
Gonna take just what scares her the most
G C F C F C F C
Turn it into something real
