[Chorus]
C# G# Fm D# C#
I keep going to the river to pray
G# Fm D# C#
'Cause I need something that can wash all the pain
G# Fm D# C#
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
G# Fm D# \
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake
[Verse]
Fm
My friends had you figured out
Yeah they saw what's inside of you
C#
Trying to hide in another you
A#m
But your evil was coming through
Fm
These guys sitting on the wall
They watch every move I make
C#
Bright light living in the shade
A#m
You go hard makes the spirit shake
[Pre-chorus]
G# A#m
I had to go through hell to prove
Fm
I'm not insane
C#
Had to meet the devil just to know his name
D#
And that's where my love was burning
Yeah it's still burning
[Chorus]
C# G# Fm D# C#
I keep going to the river to pray
G# Fm D# C#
'Cause I need something that can wash all the pain

But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake
[Verse]
Fm
Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
C#
And I let you under my skin
A#m
'Cause I love living in a sin
Fm
Boy you never told me
True love was going to hurt
C#
True pain that I don't deserve
A#m
Truth is that I never learn
[Chorus]
