Tom: G

          Em                 D
I met a ghost in a haunted mansion
         C               G
Nobody knows that he’s undead
             Em               D
Started to talk, so I paid attention
              C                 G
Gave me his soul, and then he said
   Em               D
“Kid I’ve been so lonely since
  C            G
Romeo and Juliet died
  Em               D               C
Glad I’m not the only one in this house
              G
cold on the inside


[Verse 1]
Em           D                C               G
I walked a broken road on my own to clear my mind
Em           D                 C              G
I knew the ground beneath my feet more than myself
Em                D            C                G
Glanced up to my surprise a figure looked  so scared
Em               D                   C                   G
Manned up caused we locked eyes and he had something to share


[Pre-Chorus]
       C                   Em        D
Said “if they don’t see through me, run away, that’s how they do me”
C                  Em             D
Can’t believe you stayed and you care


[Chorus]
Em                           D
I met a ghost in a haunted mansion
        C              G
Nobody knows that he’s undead
            Em             D
Started to talk, I paid attention
             C                  G
Gave me his soul, and then he said
   Em                 D
“Kid I’ve been so lonely since
C              G
Romeo and Juliet died
Em                D                 C
Glad I’m not the only one in this house
              G
cold on the inside


[Break]
Em  D  C  G
Welcome Home
Em  D  C  G          Em
Welcome Home


[Verse 2]
                    D
I don’t wanna whisper
    C                          G            Em
but I don’t wanna scream just to be heard
          D     C                       G            Em
Abandoned me, Thought self-love could force a cure
           D                C
Ties left, I can’t even blame em
G                Em
I can’t even shame em
D           C
End of the day
G                     C
Sky still soaked in grey


[Pre-Chorus]
       C                   Em        D
Said “if they don’t see through me, run away, that’s how they do me”
C                  Em             D
Can’t believe you stayed and you care


[Chorus]
          Em                 D
I met a ghost in a haunted mansion
         C               G
Nobody knows that he’s undead
             Em               D
Started to talk, so I paid attention
              C                 G
Gave me his soul, and then he said
   Em               D
“Kid I’ve been so lonely since
  C            G
Romeo and Juliet died
  Em               D               C
Glad I’m not the only one in this house
              G
cold on the inside


[Bridge]
Am
Hopped off the train and ran to my home
   C
As fast as I could cause he was alone
   G
I fumbled my keys I dropped my iPhone
   D
I flung the car door and sped down the road
Am
Gripped on the wheel, slammed on the gas
   C
I crashed through the window shattered the glass
G
Internal bleeding, numb to my dream
D
Rolled on the carpet, it was so clean?
Am
Glared at the walls, the portraits were gone
C
Someone hung up, some pics of my dog
G
Craving attention, I‘m so ignored
D
Suddenly, a knock on the door
Am
Ripped off the handle, kid waiting there
   C
He returned the favor with a blank stare
G
Body chilled up as he looked through me
D
Can’t believe how he’s gonna do me


[Chorus]
                Em                 D
Now I’m just a ghost in a haunted mansion
        C               G
Nobody knows that I’m undead
            Em                     D
Started to talk, they don’t pay attention
            C                G
Give em my soul, and then I say
      Em             D
“Kid I’ve been so lonely since
C           G
Romeo and Juliet died
Em                 D               C
Now I’m just the only one in this house
              G
cold on the inside”


[Outro]
         Em                  D
I met a ghost in a haunted mansion
         C                G
Nobody knows that he’s undead
            Em               D
Started to talk, I paid attention
             C                 G
Gave me his soul, and then he said
      Em             D
“Kid I’ve been so lonely since
C          G
Romeo and Juliet died
Em                  D              C              G
