Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
There are few who would deny at what I do I am the best
G F# G A Bm
For my talents are renowned far and wide.
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm6 A
When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
G F# G Bm
I accel without ever even trying.
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charm
G F# G Am Bm
I've seen grown men give out a shriek
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
With a wave of my hand and a well placed moan
G F# G Am Bm
I have swept the very bravest off their feet.
G F# G F#
Yet year after year, it's the same old cheer
G F# Em A7
And I grow so weary of the sound of screams
Bm Bmmaj7 A G F#
And I, Jack, the Pump-kin King
G F# G F#
Have grown so tired of the same old thing
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones
G F# Em F#
An emptiness began to grow
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
There's something out there, far from my home
G F# F# Bm2
A longing that I've never known
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
I'm a master of fright, and a demon of light
G F# G Am Bm
And I'll scare you right out of your pants
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister Unlucky
G F# G Bm
And I'm known throughout England and France
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
And since I am dead, I can take off my head
G F# G Am Bm
To recite Shakespearean quotations
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
No animal nor man can scream like I can
G F# G Bm
With the fury of my recitations
G F# G F#
But who here would ever understand
G F# Em A7
That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grin
Bm Bmmaj7 A A G F#
Would tire of his crown, if they only understood
G F# G F#
He'd give it all up if he only could
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
Oh, there's an empty place in my bones
G F# Em A
That calls out for something unknown
Bm Bmmaj7 Bm7 A
The fame and praise come year after year
G F# F#7 Bm2
Does nothing for these empty tears
