Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][Am][G]
[F][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
I'm [F]sailin' a[C]way to a [Am]place I'm a[G]fraid of
The [F]dawn isn't [C]here, the [Am]sun hasn't rose
I'm [F]drinkin' my [C]days
with the [Am]coastal long[G]shoreman
They got [F]money to [C]make
and [Am]children back home
The [F]last that I [C]heard,
you were [Am]down in New [G]Orleans
[F]Workin' your [C]days at The [Am]Print
I [F]drink 'til I [C]drown and I [Am]smoke 'til I'm [G]burnin'
Your [F]hands are all [C]over my [Am]scent
I [F]worry for [C]you, you [Am]worry for me
And it's [F]fine if we [C]know we won't [Am]change
Col[F]lect every [C]dream
in these [Am]old empty p[G]ockets
In [F]hope that I'll [C]need them some [Am]day[G]

[Chorus 1]
But the [C]wreckage of you,
I no longer reside in
The bridges have long since been [Am]burned
And the [C]ash of the home
that I started the fire
It starts to return to the [Am]Earth
I'm [C]leavin' this town
and I'm changin' my address
I know that you'll come if you [Am]want
It's [C]not Halloween,
but the ghost you dressed up as
Sure knows how to haunt,
yes, it [Am]knows how to haunt
[C](Mmm...)[C][F][C][Am][C]

[Verse 2]
It's an [F]ode to the [C]hole
that I [Am]found myself [G]stuck in
A [F]song for the [C]grave that I [Am]dug
There's a [F]murder of [C]crows
in the [Am]low light off B[G]oston
And [F]I see your f[C]ace in each o[Am]ne[G]
I'm [F]losin' my[C]self in the [Am]tiniest [G]objects
I'm [F]seein' my [C]life on a [Am]screen
I'm [F]hearin' your [C]voice
in a [Am]strange foreign [G]language
If [F]only I [C]learned how to [Am]speak

[Chorus 2]
But the [C]wreckage of you,
I no longer reside in
The bridges have long since been [Am]burned
And the [C]ash of the home
that I started the fire
It starts to return to the [Am]Earth
I'm [C]leavin' this town
and I'm changin' my address
I know that you'll come if you [Am]want
It's [C]not Halloween,
but the ghost you dressed up as
Sure knows how to haunt,

[Interlude 1]
yeah, you know how to haunt
[C](Mmm...)[C]
Know how to [F]haunt[C][Dm]
Know how to [C]haunt[C][F][C][Dm]
[C][C][F][C][Dm]
[C][C][F][C][Dm]

[Outro 1]
I [F]know that you [C]fear that I'm [Am]wicked and weary
I [F]know that you’re [C]fearin' the [Am]end
But I [F]only tell the [C]truth
when I'm [Am]sure that I'm lyin'
So [F]I'm settin' [C]sail once a[Am]gain
