[Verse]
         C           E
With the wheat brown forest
Am    F
All around me
    C             Am        F
You turned into a whisper
      C          E
Not a soul in my sight
         Am            F
Couldn't hear past the trees
      C               Am      F
I was starting to forget ya
         C            Am
And so I woke up this morning
      F
And I made my way back
       C        Am
To the city we lived in
            F
It's been a while since you packed up
        C                 E
And you laid down for the world
       Am           F
Like a pawn of your plans
      C            Am
And I did just the same
             F                 C
All mine are coming up bland
 
[Chorus]
                   Am              Dm
And ever since you left, I've been boring
          F             C
I've been sitting on my words
         F                                     C             G
Like I'm waiting for you to reach right in and pull em out
               Am
Ever since you left,
          Dm             F
I've been chewing off my tongue,
              C
Trying not to tell you wrong
        F                       G
I'm not me since you left me in doubt
 
[Verse]
  C            E
I found a body in the trees
       Am               F
He was withered down to smithereens
    C             Am                   F
His soul left him somewhere halfway to Laramie
      C               E
Rumor says his spirit walks these streets
    Am                 F
And deafens you with a haunting scream
      C                     E
If it keeps you out it must be a dream
     F
Over you I can't hear anything
 
[Chorus]
Am        Dm              F
Oh he can drag me down to hell
                       C
I'll still hope you're doing well
         F                                  C
Hope you turn your records on sometimes and think of me
      Am                  Dm                  F
Cause someday I'll be the man who walks these streets
                C
Screamin out my wants and needs
           F                       G
I hope you hear me in the distance hollering

[Outro]
             C
I'll be your ghost
     E           Am
I'll always love you
     F             C
I'll wait in these woods
        Am          F
Singing this broken tune
             C
I'll be your ghost
     E           Am
I'll always love you
          F            C                C/B              A#
Won't you come back to me, come back to me, come back to me
A#         F
Come right back
