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
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you away from you away
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you away from you away
G
Got sixteen days
Got a bottle and a rosary
F
God I wish that you were close to me
C
I guess I owe you an apology
G
Got sixteen days
Fifteen of those are nights
F
Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights
C
Its way back to your side
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you away from you away
G
Well the ghost has got me running
Well the ghost has got me running
F C
Away from you away from you away
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
