On the From the Top of Willamette Mountain album.
Capo 3
Intro: Am
[Am]Dearest Em[G]ma, theres a gh[F]ost in our t[C]own
A[F] ghost in the t[C]own from where you [G]came
[Am]Dearest Em[G]ma, there are c[F]racks in the[C] wall
A[F]nd voices in th[C]e hall that can't e[G]scape
[Am]Do you rem[G]ember when we a[F]ll were youn[C]g
W[F]hen we all were[C] much younger than [G]today?
[Am]And have y[G]ou noticed all [F]the signs on[C] the road
C[F]ausing all who [C]pass to know to ple[G]ase be safe?
And [F]I won't keep q[G]uiet for the [C]ha[C/B]rm we've [Am]caused
An[F]d I can't read [G]wrinkles on your f[C]ace
And [F]I don't have p[G]enance for th[C]e [C/B]things I'[Am]ve done
I can[G]'t explain
There is a photo on the dash of our car
That has recently gone dark from all the sun
Could you imagine if our skin were to fall
Would the world just be appalled at what we've done
Dearest Emma, theres a ghost in our town
A ghost in the town from where you came
All the nights that the dogs would bark
I stand with no remark, a crying shame
Theres a crack in the center of our kitchen floor
And I'm curious of what it could destroy
As I reach my hand into the dark below
I hear your voice
Bridge:
Am - F - C - G x 4
[C]And if you want me
[G]Like I want you
[Am]A slow escape of all that's made
[F]Our purest, stolen v[G]irtue
[C]And if you need me
[G]Like I need you
[Am]Then that ghost that bore itself below
[F]Wont bother me and, b[G]aby, won't bother yo[C]u
