E

Why are you frightened - can't you see that it's you

E

That ain't no ghost - it's a reflection of you

E

Why do you turn away - an' keep it out of sight

C#m                B         A               E

Oh - don't live up to your given roles

C#m                  B                   A                E

There's more inside you that you won't show

E

But you keep it hidden just like everyone

E

You're scared to show you care - it'll make you vulnerable

E

So you wear that ghost around you for disguise

C#m                  B                        A              E

But there's no need just 'cos it's all we've known

C#m                 B                     A                  E

There's more inside you that you haven't shown

E

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet

E

Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat

E

Just keep on walking down never ending streets

C#m                  B             A             E

One day you'll walk right out of this life

C#m                     B                      A     E

And then you'll wonder why you didn't try

E

To spread some loving all around

E

Old fashioned causes like that still stand

E

Gotta rid this prejudice that ties you down

C#m              B               A             E

How do you feel at the end of the day

C#m                      B               A             E

Just like you've waked over your own grave

E

So why are you frightened - can't you see that it's you

E

At the moment there's nothing - so there's nothing to lose

E

Lift up your lonely heart and walk right on through

C#m  B  A  E
