C/G Am
Could you please come back to me if only as a ghost
Am G F
I might not be alone in grief but I need you most
F G Am
You'r not just my older brother, you'r my best friend
Dm (Am) G7
I never got to tell you that
F G Am Am-C
So please come back again
My sweet wife is sleeping now, so's my newborn son
I wish that you could be with me as my life just begun
You should see him lying there he looks just like me
But I sure hope that it is you
That he grows up to be
The day you died, I thought that I was gonna die as well
Everything was shaking and my life turned to hell
I'm telling you i'm happy that a son is born to me
But sometimes I cant bear the thought
That you'r not here to see
Mama, paps, the rest of the bunch and all our good friends to
We're riding on a swimming horse and we still talk of you
But in the night, when i'm alone I think about before
When I was throwing magazines
At you because you snored
Solo
I dream about our arguments, I dream about our love
I can't stand people telling me you'r watching above
It's giving me no comfort thinking God's now your host
Cause I'm the one who needs you here
If only as a ghost
