[A]
[C#m] I had [F#m] my hopes, how [E] I would be
after living [D] in exile, after closing [E] your eyes to me
[A] [D]
I [A] [C#m]
even [F#m] wrote scenes where I re [E]-emerged boldly bearded alive with [D] Eskimo eyes
new baby [E] on my back
[D]
[A] but I didn't count [F#m] the fact that I have ghosts in [E] my mind
stowaway, great [A] ghosts [D] of my life
great ghosts [E] to hold wide
[D] and they're howling
so [A] I spent my wilderness [F#m] time
rolling [E] on the ground
pulling my hair and [Bm] rustling [D] them all
[E] yelling at no one, punching snow
[D]
[A]
[C#m] I gathered [F#m] ghosts and I gave them [E] my lecture
bit them away, I pleaded [F#m] and cried
[D] [G] there's no [E]
room in my life for you
[C#m] or [D] your howling

after sending them off, after getting [F#m] set free
but [D] there's no [E] such thing as living without [D]
their prowling
[A]
[C#m] as you [F#m] can see, having descended [E] the hill
I still look like me, [B] I still [D] wallow like Phil
and [E] forever will
[D]
[A]
[C#m] I'm teeming [F#m] with ghosts and I'm still whining [E] for wives
I'm knitting my brow
but now [D] I've surrendered
[F#m] in fact [E] I've joined in
can hear [D]
us howling
