The Five Ghosts

	  		Am G F 

Am           G               F 
When I was a little girl the world was small to me 
Am               G                F 
All the light in my life filtered softly through the trees 
    Am             G                 F 
The shadows in the photographs, five ghosts who followed me 
      Am         G         
I was only truly frightened once 
     F 
They called my name and said they wanted me 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye

Am             G                F 
When I grew in age and fame and travelled through the world 
        Am           G         F 
All the rives of the city like flags of blue unfurled 
   Am                  G           F 
Me pressed against the railing, me taken to a room 
   Am              G             F 
Me breaking in the morning, dark with a sense of coming doom 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye

Am               G              F 
Now I have grown old and all my grace and beauty gone 
     Am                 G               F 
Five ghosts surround my garden, I don't tell them to move on 
       Am          G               F 
I walk deeper into shade now, that dappled light again 
  Am               G               F 
I see you standing at the gate, my one and only friend 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye 
Em                          C 
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die 
Bm                                   Am                D 
Oh, for one sweet second without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
