G                    Em7     D     Cadd9
There's a skeleton, in everybody's closet
D               Em7          Cadd9
I can think of one or two in my own room
G                   Em7       D   Cadd9
But I would like to introduce them both to you
D                Em7            Cadd9
Shake their bony hands and so dispell the gloom

      D       Em7
Cause your so kind
           D         Cadd9
I know you would not mind
     G              Em7                 D  Cadd9
You'd send away the ghosts that haunt me now
        D        Em7
And the things I fear
                D     Cadd9
Just wouldn't seem so near
    G                 Em7
And when I stroll out late at night
                       D                Cadd9  G
There would be nothin' rattlin' at my heels

G                           Em7     D       Cadd9
There are night when all my aching bones won't let me sleep
    D              Em7             Cadd9
And demons come to plague me as I lie in bed
G                    Em7        D         Cadd9
But I know if you were sleeping there beside me then
       D                 Em7                Cadd9
That you would fend them off and they would let me rest
      D       Em7
Cause your so kind
           D         Cadd9
I know you would not mind
      G             Em7                  D Cadd9
You'd send away the ghosts that haunt me now
       D         Em7
And the things I fear
               D      Cadd9
Just wouldn't seem so near
    G                 Em7
And when I stroll out late at night
                       D              Cadd9
There would be nothin' rattlin' at my heels

D         Em7
There are nights
         D                          Cadd9
When the wind comes howling through my old place
D       Em7
I have dreams
      D                              Cadd9
And I wake up with the sweat pouring down my face
       G    Em7    D
And I wait.........
             Cadd9
Till the morning comes

G                        Em7       D      Cadd9
There will come a time I fear when all my days are done
    D                  Em7               Cadd9
And they will come collect my corpse and bury me
G                                Em7   D       Cadd9
And then I hope that you'll come over to the Other Side
D              Em7               Cadd9
Join me in our new life, keep me company

      D       Em7
Cause your so kind
           D         Cadd9
I know you would not mind
      G             Em7                  D  Cadd9
You'd send away the ghosts that haunt me now
       D         Em7
And the things I fear
               D      Cadd9
Just wouldn't seem so near
    G                 Em7
And when I stroll out late at night
                       D              Cadd9   G
There would be nothin' rattlin' at my heels
