F                 Am               C 
I wanna go to the ocean and send a postcard of my loneliness 
F                    Am            C   
Forgetting you is so elusive I run away but it’s always this 
           G          F 
You’re the only one I love 
                   C      G  
It’s always been you 

       F                            Am 
And I wish I was conscripted in the merchant marines 
C                                                     G           F 
Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive, oh 
        F                              Am 
And my sister keeps it simple she’s a shipboard cook 
C                                                    G               F                 
She can run a line, but if you take a look, it's not easy though 

           Am 
'Cause I'm hoping you will find me          
       C 
I keep hoping you will find me 
Am 
Hoping you will find me 
       C                       G - F 
I keep hoping you will find me 
             C      G - F 
I'm always a ghost 

F                                       Am                    
I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some séance stunt 
  C                                                        
I keep an open mind but I think it’s just a front 
          G                  F 
I want to believe it though 
F                                      Am 
My sister says "Forget her boy, that's all that you need" 
            C 
She pitches magical elixirs, potions full of mead 
      G               
For a broken heart 
         F 
It's too late for that 

C  
And I try to keep it simple; I try to keep it true 
         G                     F   
But it’s always been you; it’s always been you 
         C 
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke 
       G                     F                 G               F 
It was all just a joke; It's all just a boast, yeah yeah yeah, oh 
             C      G - F 
I'm always a ghost

Am 
You're about as haunted as a darkened basement 
C 
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement 
G 
She may have her secrets, she'll never tell 
  F 
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell 
  Am 
I heard there's something new; she starts to talk 
C 
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk 
      G 
And I say, what do you fear what are you running from 
F 
The only thing I fear is when I go numb 

        Am 
And I'm hoping you will find me 
       C 
I keep hoping you will find me 
Am 
Hoping you will find me 
       C                        G 
I keep hoping you will find me, yeah yeah yeah

And I try to keep it simple; I try to keep it true 
     G                     F 
It’s always been you, it’s always been you

       G                     F                 G               F 
It was all just a joke; It's all just a boast, yeah yeah yeah, mmm 
             C     
I’m always a ghost 
    G        F 
I’m always a ghost 
    G        C 
I’m always a ghost 
    G        F     G  C 
I’m always a ghost
