No one online had anything even close, so I thought I would contribute my version
(NOTE: The actual chords are complex variations of this, but this works nicely for
an acoustic guitar)
*Timing for the chord
changes are occasionally a bit off, listen to the song, they re easy enough to figure out*
If you really want to conjure up a ghost
Cultivate a space for the things that hurt you most
Rake the sands until they surface
Bind their tiny eyes
Stake out your position, let your armor fall
Stay put til they find you, it won t take long at all
Rake the sands until they surface
Up they come, gone translucent
They re coming up no matter what
Fools rush in and the doors slam shut
Ghosts of my childhood stay with me, if you will
Find a place where there s water, hold you under til you re still
Rake the sands until they surface
Don t let anybody call them ugly
Alternate C and F for outro, end on C
Thats it! Beautiful song, enjoy playing it.
