Here I am waking up, still can’t sleep on your side
Cadd9                                   G                  Em                  D
There’s your coffee cup, the lipstick stain fades with time

If I can dream long enough, you’d tell me I’d be just fine

Dancing through our house with the ghost of you

Cleaning up today, found that old Zepplin shirt
Cadd9                  G                  Em                                   D
You wore when you ran away, and no one could feel your hurt
Cadd9                  G                  Em    D        Cadd9         G
We’re too young, too dumb, to know things like love

But I know better now, better now

So I drown it out like I always do

Dancing through our house with the ghost of you
G                                   D                  Em
And I chase it down, with a shot of truth
Em                                   Cadd9                                   G
Dancing through our house with the ghost of you

Too young, too dumb

To know things like love
G Cadd9
G Cadd9
Too young, too dumb

So I drown it out like I always do

Dancing through our house with the ghost of you
G                                   D                  Em
And I chase it down, with a shot of truth
Em                                   Cadd9                                   G
That my feet don’t dance like they did with you
