Note: The solo isn't perfect, but it should be pretty close. If you have any
suggestions I would love to hear them.
verse 1
A A2 E C#m B E
In this country at any given time
A A2 E
There are two million empty houses
C#m B E
And one of them once was mine
A A2 E
There were twelve million spirits drifting
C#m B E
In twelve million empty rooms
A
Waving their ghostly arms at the stars
A2 C#m B E
And howling sad songs by the light of a crescent moon
B C#m
Yeah they claw at the air and they scream
A
But they don't make a sound
B C#m
Should've exercised the demons and their secrets
A
While they were 'round
Chorus
E B A
Don't you think it's funny how quickly things can turn around
E B A
All our lives are drifting like ghosts inside and empty house
B C#m A
Everything is falling to pieces and its just as well
B C#m A
Because every little piece of heaven brings a little piece of hell
