Haunt me through the screen 

verse 1 
              E               E7             E6 
Look, I won't pretend I understand it, babe, the afterlife and all 
           F#m                F#m7              B7 
But as you died, you promised me that you would try to write or call 
              E               E7        E6 
And I've been waiting ever since, every Sunday I hold seances 
     F#m          F#m7                B7 
With like-minded adults and roll your corpse into the living room 

    E                E7              E6 
And try to find your pulse, and then repine at the results 
     F#m               F#m7                B7 
I've even got my windowsills lined up with ultraviolet bulbs 
         E                E7               E6 
Shrunken shrines of human skulls and other signs of the occult 
    F#m                  F#m7                B7 
But now I'm at a fucking loss, 'cause honey, nothing seems to work 

               E           E7         E6 
Like I've been astrally projecting my body beyond my dreams 
            F#m                 F#m7                 B7 
Through the fabric of space and time so you could me spot me at the seams 
           E                  E7              E6 
I ventured through the upside-down hoping you caught me in between 
    F#m                     F#m7                 B7 
But maybe if you've got the tech, then you could haunt me on my screens 

                E                  E7      E6 
Like you should infiltrate my news feed, I swear no one would notice 
          F#m               F#m7           B7 
You could float beside some bogus BuzzFeed quiz about the POTUS 
       E       E7               E6 
Be a pixelated phantom ghost on clickbait propaganda posts 
    F#m                 F#m7               B7 
And dictate what you're thinking through a catchy headline 

      E         E7              E6 
Like "One weird reason why it's great to be ethereal" 
    F#m                 F#m7              B7 
Or "Twenty signs you're dead now and your soul is immaterial" 
   E               E7                    E6 
Or if it's late at night, then you could swoop in from the shadow realm 
    F#m                F#m7            B7 
And talk to me through pop-up ads that show up over adult films 

   E               E7             E6 
On anything you're into, we could start with milf, or facial 
          F#m              F#m7          B7 
You could beam your inter-spatial spirit into interracial 
          E             E7               E6 
If you're feeling sorta formal, we could pizza date on Skype 
            F#m              F#m7              B7 
And I could call the coroner over and we could share the corner slice 

     E                  E7                 E6 
When it's time to go to bed, then we could leave our cameras on 
           F#m             F#m7             B7 
And if the netherworld has one-day shipping free on Amazon 
               E              E7               E6 
Then you could slumber as you ship yourself, I swear this shit delivers quick 
   F#m           F#m7              B7 
Or send me the address and I could meet you by the River Styx 

    E                 E7            E6 
I'd Twitter beef with Namtar by the Tigris and Euphrates 
        F#m                F#m7            B7 
I could snap you while I'm snagging sacred threads of life from Hades 
        E             E7        E6 
I would loot Duat and photocopy-pirate the papyrus 
           F#m              F#m7            B7 
Change the records and then have a Facebook flamewar with Osiris 

    E           E7              E6 
And either way, I can't wait to talk or reunite 
             F#m              F#m7                B7 
I've been so lonely since you died, I've tried to walk towards the light 
           E             E7                  E6 
And if the Gods of Death oppose our harmless want to reconvene 
           F#m                F#m7          B7 
Then maybe we could sneak you by 'em if you haunt me through a screen 


E    E7 

E6                F#m       F#m7    B7           E    E7 
It's been far too long that you and I have been alone 
E6             F#m     F#m7   B7                     E    E7 
You could rectify that if you haunt me through my phone 
      E6            F#m       F#m7   B7            E    E7 
No, I don't want to deal with voodoo dolls and figurines 
E6            F#m       F#m7     B7 
I could do without them if you'd haunt me through my screen 

verse 2 
         E             E7          E6 
I'm just frustrated, I guess, I've hung out in countless graveyards 
      F#m            F#m7                   B7                            E 
Drawn pentagrams and slaughtered goats, and even took a course on hunting ghosts 
          E7            E6 
From Pentecostal folks, but never once have gotten close 
     F#m               F#m7           B7 
Last month, I sat with local psychics and their crystal jewels 
             E           E7                E6 
And tried to find my old T-Mobile Sidekick phone from middle school 
        F#m             F#m7             B7                            E 
Just so maybe if you're bored of fortune-telling tarot cards and magic words 
               E7              E6 
Then you could tweet a hundred-forty characters 
           F#m           F#m7             B7 
So I could throw away my voodoo dolls and stop chanting my juju mantras 

E            E7                    E6 
That my guru taught us, and if you slide into some YouTube comments 
F#m                  F#m7             B7 
You could scroll the comment page, or you could leave it blank 
        E          E7                E6 
If your specter is perceptible, we'd tell 'em it's a prank 
           F#m                 F#m7          B7 
And if you still don't send responses, I'd assume the problem's technical 

    E            E7              E6 
And I would call Verizon just so someone could inspect it all 
    F#m             F#m7           B7 
I'd tell him I just want a close encounter of the spectral kind 
     E                E7           E6 
He'd ask if we turned on our modem router for a second time 
    F#m           F#m7             B7 
And plugged it in correctly to the voltage-power socket line 

    E               E7          E6 
And tried to tear a portal hole through to your paranormal soul 
   F#m              F#m7          B7 
So me and you could catch up on a toll-free spirit-mortal call 
   E              E7            E6 
Or we could see a witch doctor, she'd probably be skeptical 
     F#m         F#m7             B7 
Clinician with a stethoscope, the specimen non-skeletal 

    E            E7            E6 
The symptoms metaphysical, the convalescent soulless 
   F#m            F#m7           B7 
At first, her diagnosis could be we should try hypnosis 
    E              E7                 E6 
But truthfully, if you can choose the way that you're reborn 
           F#m        F#m7           B7 
I hope you use the 3G phone and you eschew the ouija board 

            E              E7              E6 
And at this point, I don't really know why I learned ESP for 
     F#m               F#m7            B7 
When you could just descend and settle in my USB port 
      E      E7            E6 
Or my NVIDIA GeForce or my video AV cord 
           F#m            F#m7             B7 
There's no need for Santa Muerte when I've got a QWERTY keyboard 

         E              E7                E6 
We could play a game of e-sports, you and I'd be on a team 
          F#m         F#m7            B7 
If you're feeling otiose, I'll put my audio on stream 
        E                  E7                E6 
I still have your favorite games, babe, I've got 'em all on Steam 
          F#m                 F#m7           B7 
We'll get started when you're ready once you haunt me through a screen 


E    E7 

E6                F#m       F#m7    B7           E    E7 
It's been far too long that you and I have been alone 
E6             F#m     F#m7   B7                     E    E7 
You could rectify that if you haunt me through my phone 
      E6            F#m       F#m7   B7            E    E7 
No, I don't want to deal with voodoo dolls and figurines 
E6            F#m       F#m7     B7 
I could do without them if you'd haunt me through my screen
