[G] [Em]Ooo[C]h,[G] [F#]
G (Choke the G at the start of the singing)
Oooh,
Well,
[G] You and I[Em] both know that the[C] house is[G] haunted,[F#]
[G] And you and I b[Em]oth know that th[C]e ghost i[G]s me, [F#]
[G] Used to catch me in yo[Em]ur bedsheets ju[C]st rattling yo[G]ur chains,[F#]
[G] Well back then baby it didn't seem so strange,
[D] I used to [C]bite I used to [G]moan, [F#] [G]
[D] But now I [C]mumble and you [G]choke, [F#] [G]
[D] Now I aint so [C]scary on my [G]own,[F#] [G]
Tell me honey what's a dagger without a cloak,
I don't know,
Cause,
[G] You and I[Em] both know that the[C] house is[G] haunted,[F#]
[G] And you and I bo[Em]th know that the[C] ghost is[G] me, [F#]
[G] Used to catch me in your[Em] bedsheets just[C] rattling your[G] chains,[F#]
[G] Well back then baby it didn't seem so strange,
*
[D] In the midnight [C]hour you came [G]alive,*[F#] [G]
[D] I had to go get [C]my crystal [G]ball,[F#] [G]
[G] Gotta find that snake,
[D] When the sun came [C]up we couldn't find [G]no place to hide,
[D] And you had to tell your friends that my fangs were fake, I had to,
Tha[F#]t's so [G]messed up,
Cause,
[G] You and I[Em] both know that the[C] house is[G] haunted,[F#]
[G] And you and I bo[Em]th know that the[C] ghost is[G] me, [F#]
[G] Used to catch me in your[Em] bedsheets just[C] rattling your[G] chains,[F#]
[G] Well back then baby it didn't seem so strange,
[Am] But even when one is [C]dead and [Em7]gone,
[Am] It still takes two to make a [C]house a [Em7]home,
[Am] I'm as lonesome as the [C]cata[Em7]combs
[Am] I hear you call my name but no ones there,
Except a [Em7/4]feeling in the air,
*Strum strings muted in this part*
Cause, you and I both know that the house is haunted,
Yeah you and I both know that the ghost is you,
You should walk around screaming oh slamming all them doors,
[D] Well I'm all grown up now I don't scare easy no more,
Cause, you and I [G]both know,[Em] [C] [G] [F#]
You and I [G]both know,[Em] oo[C]h,[G] [F#]
You and I [G]both know,[Em] oo[C]h,[G] [F#]
You and I [G]both know,[Em] oo[C]h,[G] [F#]
