The Ghost in You Siouxsie and the Banshees
THE GHOST IN YOU - by Siouxsie and the Banshees
from their 1991 album "Superstition"
I play this capoed on 4 so I don't have to barre so much, making G# played
like E and C# played like A. But to keep things accurate I'm noting chords
as if there is no capo. And I've tried, but you really do play the chords
that far up the neck to match the notes the keyboard is playing. Each chord gets one measure.
[G#]Fm [-]- [4]8 [6]8 [6]10[5] 1[4]0 [4]9 8
[C#]Bbm [-]- [4]6 [4]8 [6]8 [6]6 [6]6 [4]6
THE GHOST IN YOU - by Siouxsie and the Banshees
-----------------------------------------------
[G#] [Fm] [C#] [G#]
You a- G# -woke in a burning Fm paperhouse
from the C# infinite fields
of G# dreamless sleep
You re- Fm -turn to Ti- C# -annammen
an eye- G# -witness in a shroud
to see them Bbm fall, feel them Fm yield
re- Bbm -living the terror Fm of the crowd
CHORUS:
C# Hold the whirlwind, don't Bbm let it blow
Fm just for a moment I G# seemed to know
C# Hold the whirlwind, don't Bbm let it blow
I Fm seemed to know G# the ghost in you
[G#] [Fm]
The G# whisper of your scream sighed through the Fm air
and C# faith-the flag is G# torn and frayed
inferno Fm heat, glory C# in flame
love was beaten G# and betrayed
In every Bbm step I hear your Fm sobbing
dare I Bbm break the shade with Fm one caress?
CHORUS:
C# Dare I trespass to Bbm lift the veil
to Fm touch the lips so G# soft and frail?
C# Hold the whirlwind, don't Bbm let it blow
I Fm seemed to know the G# ghost in you
[G#] [Fm] [C#] [G#]
Your captive Bbm heart, the be- Fm -lief you share
with a Bbm kiss eternal, the spirits Fm of the square
C# Hold the whirlwind, don't Bbm let it blow
Fm Hope remains with the G# ghost in you
C# Hold the whirlwind, don't Bbm let it blow
I Fm seemed to know the G# ghost in you
C# don't Bbm let it blow Fm
G# the ghost in you C# Bbm Fm
G# the ghost in you C# Bbm Fm G#
[C#] [Bbm] [Fm] [G#]
