Cm                                     Ab
There’s a house on the corner built in 2001
                   Eb
All the teen angst collecting like dust
Cm
Disappointing their fathers, liquor and magazines
Ab
Stay through the weekend
Eb
Leave it to me


Eb                   Gm
And the ghost in the attic
Cm
Closer than a whisper
Ab
Now we see through each other
Eb
Wasn’t so cinematic
Ab
Could’ve been October

They forgot the foreclosure
Eb
Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-da-
Ab
dum
Eb
Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-da-
Ab
dum


Cm
People stare through the window

When they get a chance
Ab
Watch the ghost in the attic
Eb
Water dead plants
Cm
Cause nothing new grows here

Nothing to see
Ab
Just some angsty teenagers

And what we buried


Eb                   Gm
And the ghost in the attic
Ab
Closer than a whisper

Now we see through each other
Eb        Gb
Wasn’t so cinematic
Ab
Could’ve been October

They forgot the foreclosure


Eb
Part of me wishes I’d haunt you instead
Ab
Finding bones in the kitchen

I thought you were dead
Eb
It’s the sound from the ceiling

That’s starting to fade
Ab
More and more every time

I’m forgetting your name
Eb
There’s creaks in the floorboards

No one to blame
Ab
I’m the house on the corner


Eb                      Gm
You’re the ghost in the attic
Ab
Closer than a whisper

Now we see through each other
       Eb
Wasn’t so cinematic
Ab
Could’ve been October

They forgot the foreclosure
Eb
Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-da-
Ab
dum
Eb
Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-da-
Ab
dum
