Ghost in my Guitar (feat. Harley) - Species

Down the drain pipe cross the yard and through the fence I risked a whoopin' every time I went 'Cause white boys weren't allowed On the colored side of town But I was proud to call That old black man my friend He had a pillow by the bed he used to pray on And a beat up old guitar he let me play on I knew where my fingers went From his greasy fingerprints Yeah, he was passin' on What was handed down to him And it soaked up all the blood and sweat and teardrops And the beers he missed in smokey little bars And sometimes that old man he comes alive in my hands I feel the beating of his sad old broken heart Just like there's a ghost in this guitar A ghost in this guitar Well, the night before he died he made me take it He said, "You play it now, 'cause I gotta go" And I can feel him in my fingers when I play it 'Cause sometimes I'm in control And sometimes I just sit back And let him go Sit back and let him go And it soaked up all the blood and sweat and teardrops And the beers he missed in smokey little bars And sometimes that old man he comes alive in my hands I feel the beating of his sad old broken heart Just like there's a ghost in this guitar A ghost in this guitar Take a listen to the ghost in this guitar

There's a There's a There is a ghost lying in my sheets I'm not alone when I sleep I hear the walls trying to speak There's something haunting me She said There's a ghost in my bed And I don't know if he's alive or dead There's a ghost in my bed "Every night I toss and turn," she said There's a ghost in my head She don't know if I come back like you said There's a ghost in my head My bed, my bed, my bed She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared And I'll never ever see her again There is a ghost lying in my sheets I'm not alone when I sleep I hear the walls trying to speak There's something haunting me She said There's a ghost in my bed And I don't know if he's alive or dead There's a ghost in my bed Every night I toss and turn, she said There's a ghost in my head She don't know if I come back like you said There's a ghost in my head My bed, my bed, my bed There's a ghost in my bed There's a ghost in my bed She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared She said; Baby, when you're gone I'm scared And I'll never ever see her again

Misery likes company I like the way that sounds I've been trying to find the meaning So I can write it down Starin' out the window It's such a long way down I'd like to jump But I'm afraid to hit the ground I can't write a love song the way I feel today And I can't sing no song of hope I got nothing to say Life is feeling kind of strange since you went away I sing this song to you wherever you are As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms I'm tired of watching TV It makes me want to scream Outside the world is burning Man it's so hard to believe Each day you know you're dying From the cradle to the grave I get so numb sometimes That I just feel the pain I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope I've got nothing to say Life is feeling kind of strange it's strange enough these days I send this song to you whoever you are As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms Staring at the paper (Staring at the paper) I don't know what to write (I don't know what to write) I'll have my last cigarette well (I'll have my last cigarette) (Turn out the lights) Maybe tomorrow (Maybe tomorrow) I'll feel it differently (I'll feel it differently) But here in my delusion (Here in my delusion) I don't know what to say (What to say) I can't write a love song the way I feel today And I can't sing no song of hope I got nothing to say I can't fight the feelings that are buried in my brains I send this song to you wherever you are As my guitar lies bleeding I can't write a love song the way I feel today And I can't sing no song of hope there's no one left to save And I can't fight the feelings buried in my brains I send this song to you everyone As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms Ohhh

There's a ghost in my house The ghost of your memories The ghost of the love you took from me Where our love used to be Only shadows from the past I see Time can't seem to erase The vision of your smiling face Though you found someone new I can't get over you There's a ghost in my house I can't hide (ghost in my house) From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house) It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house) Just keeps on remiding me (ghost in my house) In my mind I know you're gone But my heart keeps holding on To the memories of those happy times To the love that once was mine Though we're far apart You're always in my heart There's a ghost in my house I can't hide (ghost in my house) From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house) You're still such a part of me (ghost in my house) Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house) I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs When I know there's no one there Everyday, I love you more So much more than the day before Sittin' in my easy chair I feel your fingers running through my hair Lookin' down in my coffee cup I think, I see your face lookin' up All alone in my gloom You voice echoes through the room There's a ghost in my house And I can't hide (ghost in my house) From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house) It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house) Just keeps on reminding me (ghost in my house) I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs When I know there's no one there You're still such a part of me (ghost in my house) Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house) I can't hide (ghost in my house) From the ghost of your love that's inside (ghost in my house) Everyday, I love you more
