G#m B C#m E


[Verse 1]
G#m                  B
Mid-dark thoughts of the grey tombstone
C#m                E
And all I loved, I loved alone
G#m                    B
The second son of a setting sun
C#m                E
Scores to settle, one by one
G#m                 B
Years of love have been forgot
C#m                 E
Years of trouble, years of draught
 G#m             B
Years of ever gently tapping
C#m               E
On your chamber, all for naught


[Pre-Chorus]
G#m                G
And every ghastly apparition
      E              C#m
Claims to be the soul I'm missing
G#m             G
Even though I keep on saying
      E              C#m
That chair is empty now
G#m                      B
Can't you see, can't you see?
     C#m            E
That chair is empty now
G#m                          B
Can't you see, can't you see?
        C#m          E
That chair is empty now


[Chorus]
G#m                B
Life is phantasmagoria now
     C#m                 E
And every shadow is reaching out to me
G#m                B
Life is phantasmagoria now
     C#m                     E
And all that's left is the stranger part of me


[Verse 2]
G#m              B
By a shore of silver ashes
 C#m             E
Where a sea of sorrow crashes
G#m              B
There is someone who remembers
C#m                E
Someone who bears my resemblance
G#m              B
Someone who has all the seeming
C#m             E
Of a ghost forever dreaming
G#m              B
And when I call, it always answers
 C#m                 E
"I cannot tell you anything"


[Pre-Chorus]
G#m                G
And every ghastly apparition
      E              C#m
Claims to be the soul I'm missing
G#m                G
Even though I keep on saying
      E              C#m
That chair is empty now
G#m                      B
Can't you see, can't you see?
 C#m             E
That chair is empty now
G#m                      B
Can't you see, can't you see?
 C#m             E
That chair is empty now


[Chorus]
G#m                      B
Life is phantasmagoria now
 C#m                  E
And every shadow is reaching out to me
G#m                      B
Life is phantasmagoria now
 C#m                     E
And all that's left is the stranger part of me


[Bridge]
 C#m                     E
Can't you see, can't you see?
      B             G#m
That chair is empty now
 G#m                  B
Can't you see, can't you see?
 C#m             E
That chair is empty now


[Instrumental]
G#m B C#m E


[Outro]
G#m                      G
Life is phantasmagoria now
 C#m             E
And every shadow is reaching out to me
G#m                      G
Life is phantasmagoria now
 C#m             E
And all that's left is the stranger part of me
