[Verse 1]
Bm
I melt into the floor, oh-oh-oh
A
And it's only 5 o'clock
E
But at least the voices stopped
Bm
It's crawling through my veins
A
And yes I prayed, but God he never came
E N.C.
He left me here to rot with the other sinners
[Chorus]
Bm A
There's not a day I feel free
E
Of the ghost that's haunting me
Bm A
Cause the ghost here is me
E
And where I go he leads
Bm A
And even when I am clear
E
He is waiting calmly
Bm A E
Cause he knows when I'm weak, I would rather sleep
Bm A E
I would rather sleep
[Verse 2]
Bm
I feel it in my soul
A
His grip is cold dragging me through hell
E
And telling me I'm home
Bm
I'm losing all control
A
And this I know, he'll never me let go
E
And I'll never tell him no
N.C.
I'll never say it
[Chorus]
Bm A
There's not a day I feel free
E
Of the ghost that's haunting me
Bm A
Cause the ghost here is me
E
And where I go he leads
Bm A
And even when I am clear
E
He is waiting calmly
Bm A E
Cause he knows when I'm weak, I would rather sleep
Bm A E
I would rather sleep
[Chorus]
Bm A
There's not a day I feel free
E
Of the ghost that's haunting me
Bm A
Cause the ghost here is me
E
And where I go he leads
Bm A
And even when I am clear
E
He is waiting calmly
Bm A E
Cause he knows when I'm weak, I would rather sleep
Bm A E
I would rather sleep
Bm A E
I would rather sleep
