The Ghost Inside Broken Bells
Great song by Broken Bells, pretty simple chords.
This was compiled in response to a couple versions on here with either
incorrect chords or incorrect lyrics (although, I can't seem to find the
official lyrics anywhere, so these might still be wrong). This is compiled to
the best of my ability using live videos and my own ear as a reference.
Enjoy!
Standard tuning, no capo
Intro: Em D A
[Em]She sold he[G]r love to the[D] modern[A] man
[Em]Cause solid[G] currency's t[D]he hardest to [A]lend
[Em]All of that[G] money helps you[D] cover your e[A]yes
[Em]Don't let t[G]he lady finger [D]blow in your [A]hand
Did it [Em]all
Chorus:
[G] For that [D]Dol[A]lar[Em]
[G] She's a st[D]ar to[A]night[Em]
[G] Without w[D]arn[A]ing
She gave [Em]up the [G]ghost i[A]nsi[D]de
[Em]Just like a wh[G]iskey bottle [D]drained on the
[A]floor
[Em]She got no fut[G]ure, just a l[D]ove to e[A]ndure
[Em]This good sama[G]ritan shakin'[D] her han[A]d
[Em]Too late to le[G]ave him now, [D]the sun's in her
[A]bed
Give it [Em]up
Chorus:
[G] For that [D]Dol[A]lar[Em]
[G] She's a st[D]ar to[A]night[Em]
[G] Without w[D]arn[A]ing
She gave [Em]up the [G]ghost i[A]nsi[D]de
[Em] You call it chivalry
[D]Never pull a [A]punch for free
[Em] You ever wonder why they [D]had to move [A]on - on
[Em] This phony honor code
[D] That puts you [A]on your throne
[Em] A double standard
You in[D]voke when you[A] want - want
Chorus:
[G] For that [D]Dol[A]lar[Em]
[G] She's a st[D]ar to[A]night[Em]
[G] Without w[D]arn[A]ing
She gave [Em]up the [G]ghost i[A]nsi[D]de
Bridge:
[Em]Was it all for show
[Am]Don't turn into [D]one of them
[Em]Turn another page
[Am]Trust me darlin
[D]I'm carving them up
through the dust in your [Em]town
[Am]Crawling over rubble[D]
[Em]Just to sort it out
[Am]Now I tend to wonder why
End with:
[Em] [D] [A]
[Em] [D] [A]
