My Old Ghosts The Wooden Sky
Song: My Old Ghosts
Tabbed by: Vance Berisford
This song is played with a capo on the 3rd fret. All chords and tab shown are relative
to the capo.
These are the basic chords used in the song. There are two fills shown below that are
played basically every time the C and Gsus chords are played. Listen to the song if you
aren't sure of the rhythm. I watched a video of them playing the song and I'm pretty
confident the chords are spot on.
Chords:
C -32010
F -33210
Gsus2 320010
Am -02210
Fsus2 -33010

[C]Horses by my window go
When you're [F]fast asleep far below
And I h[C]ope that you never kn[Gsus2]ow
That while you [F]sleep I still find [Fsus2]time for my old ghosts
[C]
[Am]See I was born just [C]yesterday
And I [F]try to tell my feet to stay but they w[C]on't
You know it's h[Gsus2]ard to find a friend
But I'm d[C]umb and I might change my mind again
When it's s[F]low I think I'd rather [Gsus2]die
Then pass this [F]off on some u[Fsus2]nsuspecting child
[C]Angie came to me today
And said she was [F]born to lead but not to say
That she [C]knows there's no [Gsus2]hope
Of making [F]good on all those p[Fsus2]romises that she wrote
[C]
[Am]Surely there's been [C]some mistake
Some b[F]lind omission or a spot for change but [C]no
You know it's [Gsus2]hard to find a friend
But I'm [C]dumb and I might change my mind again
When I'm [F]low I still look to g[Gsus2]hosts
To keep a cool [F]eye on the h[Fsus2]and that holds my throat
[Am]See I was born just [C]yesterday
And I [F]try to tell my feet to stay but they [C]won't
