C                                              Em 
Could you please come back to me if only as a ghost
Em                                G             F
I might not be alone in grief but I need you most
F                 G                 Em            Am
You're not just my older brother, you're my best friend
Dm               Am        G7
I never got to tell you that
F          G              Am 
So please come back again

[Verse 2]
C                                              Em 
My sweet wife is sleeping now, so's my newborn son
Em                                G             F
I wish that you could be with me as my life just begun
F                 G                 Em            Am
You should see him lying there he looks just like me
Dm               Am        G7
But I sure hope that it is you
F          G              Am 
That he grows up to be

[Verse 3]
C                                                   Em 
The day you died, I thought that I was gonna die as well
Em                                G             F
Everything was shaking and my life turned to hell
F                 G                 Em            Am
I'm telling you i'm happy that a son is born to me
Dm               Am        G7
But sometimes I cant bear the thought 
F          G              Am 
That you'r not here to see

[Verse 4]
C                                              Em 
Mama, paps, the rest of the bunch and all our good friends to
Em                                G             F
We're riding on a swimming horse and we still talk of you
F                 G                 Em            Am
But in the night, when i'm alone I think about before
Dm               Am        G7
When I was throwing magazines
F          G              Am 
At you because you snored

[Solo]

[Verse 5]
C                                              Em 
I dream about our arguments, I dream about our love
Em                                G             F
I can't stand people telling me you'r watching above
F                 G                 Em            Am
It's giving me no comfort thinking God's now your host
Dm               Am        G7
Cause I'm the one who needs you here
F          G              Am 
If only as a ghost
