G / / 2 / / 3 / / 4 /
I see how he travels
                               D
Whenever he walks through your mind
Stirrin' up memories that cloud up your eyes
          C                          G
Where the light of our love ought to shine
I know that he hurt you, hurt you so bad
   G7                     C
He must have been goin' insane
           D
Well, I've finally learned how to hold you together
     D7                    G
When somebody mentions his name

CHORUS:
     C
He's just a ghost story, so don't let him scare you
                              G
He's not really there like he seems
    D
And tonight when I hold you, I'll hold you so close
     D7                         G
I'll love him right out of your dreams

Verse 2:
I know that he's called you
And told you that our love can't last
But don't you believe him, 'cause honey, he's wrong
He's never been right in the past
So don't let him haunt you, tell you those lies
He just can't admit that you're free
So the next time he calls you, just hand me the phone
And see if he says it to me

(chorus twice)
