INTRO: C - F - C -F

VERSE 1:

C                                     F
  dancing like the nights are down in nashville
C                                           F
  but i seem to know the ghosts who like to run
G                  Am      G                  F
 i got a call to go   to a late night picture show
Am                  G                C       F
 so i traded in the darkness and i'm already there
    C       F
i'm already there
        D                   F
and i'm tryin' to make some friends


Chorus:

                   Am    G        F
so if you see that movie star and me
              Am           G   F
if you see my picture in a magazine
               Am            G       F
or if you fall asleep by the bedroom TV
                    D              F
well honey i'm just tryin' to make some sense
      C       F      C    F

VERSE 2:

C                              F
 I left a lot of ghosts in San Francisco
C                                      F
 and now you wanna say you see through me
G                   Am             G           F
 but what you wanna see ain't your memories of me
Am                  G                   C       F
 so why you turn around tonight but i'm already there
    C       F
i'm already there
             D                   F
and i'm just tryin' to make some friends


Chorus:

                   Am    G        F
so if you see that movie star and me
                  Am           G   F
you should see my picture in a magazine
               Am                G        F
or if you fall asleep when youre watching TV
