Tom: C
Am G C F
Am G C
[Chorus]
Am* G* C* F*
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
Am* G* C* F*
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
Am G C F
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Am G
Oh Magdalene
Am G C F x2
[Verse 1]
C Am
Ok, I guess I’m a fool for hire
G F
I know, I know I saw all the signs
C Am
It never is enough to be this close to love
G F
And if we keep pretending then we’re wasting our lives
Am G C F
So keep the shirts I left at your place
Am G C F
They’ll do nothing for me now except dress me in pain
Am G C F
I know, I know that love is a game
Am G C F
But if I keep losing, I don’t want to play
[Chorus]
Am G C F
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
Am G C F
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
Am G C F
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Am G C F
Oh Magdalene
[Verse 2]
C G
And I could wait around just playing my part
F C G C
Laughing at the tattoos left on my heart
F C G Am
I’m no good at good, I’m no good at goodbye
F C G C
Oh Magdalene, why even try
[Melodica Solo]
F C G C X4
[Chorus and Outro]
Am* G* C* F*
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
Am* G* C* F*
I’ll be fine by the time of the end of this song
Am* G* C* F
So long, to the ghost of a girl I adored
Am G C F
Oh Magdalene
Am G C F
Oh Magdalene
Am G C F
Oh Magdalene
Am G C F
Oh Magdalene
Am G C F
And I could wait around just a little bit longer
Am G C F
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
Am G C F
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Am G C
Oh Magdalene
