Intro: G Am

Verse 1:
         G
You walk out the door

Then you want back in
                G                     Am
The second that it's cold outside
                     Am
And you see I've got something to give
        Em
And I'd give it to you

a hundred times over
         Em
Till you screwed me over
 C
Just like the last time
        C
Sayin' it was the last time
G
I paid the price
        G
Staying alone in my room
                    G
After what happened in June
Am
Thinking I really loved you
                  Em
And maybe I still do
                                                   C                G
But I think you're honestly something I needed to lose

Chorus:
G
I know it's not healthy
G
It doesn't help me
      G                 Am
But I do it anyways

Looking at photos
 Am
Reading the letters
          Em
That you gave me
                             C
I could never throw them out
     nc
Cause, a ghost never leaves a haunted house

Post-chorus: G   G

            G          Am     Am
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
            Am               Em      Em
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
            Em
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
   C
a ghost never leaves a haunted house

Verse 2:
           G              G
I get reminiscent (ooh - ooh)
         G                Am      Am       Am
When somebody says your name
Am            Em      Em            Em
Almost glad I miss it (ooh - ooh)
            Em          C                          C
Cause it's better than not feeling a single thing
      C     Em
Even after all the white lies
D
Empty goodbyes
G
All the tears
     C
And all the times
                                 Am         Am
You weren't there when I needed you to be
Am                           Em
Hoping you're right where you wanna be
Em            C
Even if it's not with me

Chorus:
G
I know it's not healthy
G
It doesn't help me
      G                 Am
But I do it anyways

Looking at photos
 Am
Reading the letters
          Em
That you gave me
                             C
I could never throw them out
     (nc)
Cause, a ghost never leaves a haunted house

Post-chorus: G   G

            G          Am     Am
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
            Am               Em      Em
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
            Em
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
   C                                    G
a ghost never leaves a haunted house

Outro:
G                    G               Am      Am
We were living then but we die now
                    Am            Em      Em
The silence used to be so loud
                   Em      C        C
So glad that I can hear my sound
                              C              G        G
Cause a ghost never leaves a haunted house
                    G            Am       Am
Think we’re on our final scene
                         Am        Em      Em
Keep us good in all our memories
                    Em              C
So I don't have to throw them out
    (nc)
a ghost never leaves a haunted house
