[Chorus 1]
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you
[D]It keeps me awake

[Verse 1]
My friends I can [Em]figure out
You're the soul that's inside of you
It's rock hard in a[C]nother you
But your evil was [Am]coming through
These eyes sitting [Em]on the wall
Well they watch every move I make
Bright light taking [C]in the shape
You go hard, makes my [Am]spirit shake

[Pre-chorus 1]
(Ooh)
[G]I had to go [Am]through hell
to prove I'm [Em]not insane
Had to [C]meet the devil just to know his name
And that's when my [D]love was burning

[Chorus 2]
Yeah it's still burning
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you
[D]It keeps me awake

[Chorus 3]
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you
It keeps me awake

[Verse 2]
Each time that I [Em]think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
And I let you a[C]nother skin
'Cause I love living [Am]in the sin
Oh you never [Em]told me
True love was gonna hurt
True pain, it's [C]own desert
True face that I [Am]never learned

[Chorus 4]
(Ooh)
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you
[D]It keeps me awake

[Chorus 5]
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you

[Bridge 1]
It keeps me awake
[C]Give up the gho[G]st
Give up the ghost
[Em]Give up the ghos[D]t
Stall the haunting baby
[C]Give up the gho[G]st
Give up the ghost
[Em]Give up the ghos[D]t
No more haunting [D]baby

[Chorus 6]
I keep going to the river
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the [C]pain
And [G]at most
I'm [Em]sleeping all [D]these demons a[C]way
But [G]your ghost, the [Em]ghost of you
[D]It keeps me awake

[Chorus 7]
[C]I k[G]eep goin[Em]g to the [D]river to pray[C]
'Cause [G]I need
[Em]something that [D]can wash out the pain
And at most
I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
