G
Got sixteen days
One for every time I've gone away
F
One for every time I should have stayed
C
Should have wore my wedding ring
G
Got sixteen days
Fifteen of those are nights
F
Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights
C
It's way back to your side
[Chorus]
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running

Away from you away from you away
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running

Away from you away from you away

Got sixteen days
Got a bible and a rosary

Fifteen of those are nights

Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights

Its way back to your side

Old tin cups, and little paper dolls
Am C F
All wrapped up, in the ribbons of your heart
