Introduction:
F#6 C2
I threw out the photographs
D7M F#6
Like yesterdays flowers
F#6 C2
I tried to erase the past
D7M F#6
But it won't go away
B C#
And those where the curtains
Bbm D#m
That you had made
B C#
One thing's for certain
D7M F#6
The ghost of you stays
F#6 C2
I painted the second room
D7M F#6
And cleared out the basement
F#6 C2
And smelled some of your perfume
D7M F#6
On the scarf that you made
B C# Bbm D#m
The Salvation Army collected your things
B C# Bbm D#m
I gave them the jewellery, all the bracelets and rings
B C# Bbm D#m
Your clothes in black bin bags I gave them away
B C# D7M F#6
I tried to move on but the ghost of you stays
D7M F#6
The ghost of you stays
D7M F#6 B
The ghost of you stays
F#6 C2
I threw out the photographs
D7M F#6
Like yesterdays flowers
F#6 C2
I tried to erase the past
D7M F#6
But it won't go away
B C#
I wake in the morning
Bbm D#m
And try to be brave
B C#
But it's hard to move on
D7M F#6
When the ghost of you stays
B C#
It's hard to move on
D7M F#6
When the ghost of you stays
D7M F#6
The ghost of you stays
D7M F#6
The ghost of you stays
