[Intro]
C#
There's a ghost in my house
                  E
The ghost of your memories

The ghost of the love you took from me


[Verse 1]
      A                  D A
Where our love used to be
     C                       E
Only shadows from the past I see
A                        D A
Time can't seem to erase
    C                      E
The vision of your smiling face
B                        G#m
Though you found someone new
  C#sus2         G#m
I can't get over you
 G#m       A          F#m
There's a ghost in my house


[Chorus]
 C#
I can't hide (ghost in my house)
C#
From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house)
            E
It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house)
E
Just keeps on remiding me (ghost in my house)


[Verse 2]
   A                         D A
In my mind I know you're gone
        C                  E
But my heart keeps holding on
A                                   D A
To the memories of those happy times
        C                 E
To the love that once was mine
B                 G#m
Though we're far apart
    C#sus2         G#m
You're always in my heart
 G#m       A        F#m
There's a ghost in my house


[Chorus]
C#
I can't hide (ghost in my house)
C#
From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house)
                    E
You're still such a part of me (ghost in my house)
E
Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house)
C#
I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs (ghost in my house)
C#
When I know there's no-one there (ghost in my house)
            E
Every day I love you more (ghost in my house)
E
So much more than the day before (ghost in my house)


[Verse 3]
A                       D A
Sittin' in my easy chair
        C                              E
I feel your fingers running through my hair
A                             D A
Lookin' down in my coffee cup
        C                       E
I think I see your face lookin' up
B                 G#m
All alone in my gloom
     C#sus2                  G#m
Your voice echoes through the room
 G#m        A        F#m
There's a ghost in my house


[Chorus]
C#
And I can't hide (ghost in my house)
C#
From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house)
            E
It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house)
 E
Just keeps on reminding me (ghost in my house)
C#
I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs (ghost in my house)
C#
When I know there's no-one there (ghost in my house)
 E
You're still such a part of me (ghost in my house)
E
Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house)
  C#
I can't hide (ghost in my house)
C#
From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house)
