My Old Ghosts Lyrics
This song is played with a capo on the 3rd fret. All chords and tab shown are relative
to the capo.
These are the basic chords used in the song. There are two fills shown below that are
played basically every time the C and Gsus chords are played. Listen to the song if you
aren't sure of the rhythm. I watched a video of them playing the song and I'm pretty
confident the chords are spot on.
Chords:
C-fill
G-fill
Horses by my window go
When you're fast asleep far below
And I hope that you never know
That while you sleep I still find time for my old ghosts
See I was born just yesterday
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
You know it's hard to find a friend
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
When it's slow I think I'd rather die
Then pass this off on some unsuspecting child
Angie came to me today
And said she was born to lead but not to say
That she knows there's no hope
Of making good on all those promises that she wrote
Surely there's been some mistake
Some blind omission or a spot for change but no
You know it's hard to find a friend
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
When I'm low I still look to ghosts
To keep a cool eye on the hand that holds my throat
See I was born just yesterday
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
