G
Got sixteen days, one for every time I've gone away
F
One for every time I should have stayed
C
Should have wore my wedding ring
G
Got sixteen days, fifteen of those are nights
F
Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights
C
It's way back to your side
Chorus:
G
Well, the ghost has got me running
G
Well, the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you, away from you, away
G
Well, the ghost has got me running
G
Well, the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you, away from you, away
Got sixteen days, got a bottle and a rosary
God I wish that you were close to me
I guess I owe you an apology
Got sixteen days, fifteen of those are nights
Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights
Its way back to your side
Chorus
Bridge:
Am C F G
Old tin cups, little paper dolls
Am C F
All wrapped up, in ribbons bows and hearts
Am C F G
Old tin cups, and little paper dolls
Am C F
All wrapped up, in the ribbons of your heart
Solo
G
I got sixteen days
Sixteen days
I got sixteen days
It's like a fool I am
