Artist: Carrie Newcomer
[INTRO]
[G]
[VERSE]
I've been hearing footsteps on the stairs[D/F#]
Flip on the light and no one's there[Em]
This is how we learn to navigate[C]
All the ghosts and lingering wraiths[G]
[VERSE]
The things you try to hide will not be hid[D/F#]
They said it didn't happen, but it did[Em]
All the things that scared you as a k[C]id
In the basement, underneath the b[D]ed
[CHORUS]
Hau[Em]nted__[C]_ [D]
Hau[Em]nted__[C]_ [G]
[VERSE]
If you look long into the dark[D/F#]
Something will illuminate or spa[Em]rk
When you wade where the silence is [C]deep
If you listen long enough, it spe[G]aks
[VERSE]
Not every haunting is redeemed[D/F#]
Not every ghost is what it seems [Em]
When we name the dragons, dragons fa[C]ll
Armoured flanks, flaming wings and [D]all
[CHORUS]
Hau[Em]nted__[C]_ [D]
Hau[Em]nted__[C]_
[BRIDGE]
It's [Am]calling [G]through the [C]keyholes [Am]
Under[G]neath the [C]doors [Am]
Slipping [G]through the [C]windows and floor[D]boards [G]
[VERSE]
Shameful stories, unmet needs[D/F#]
Old ideas and even older dee[Em]ds
It's safe to finally re[C]lease
The shadows of all these[G]
[VERSE]
It's dangerous to live in a normal wo[D/F#]rld
When you're not an ordinary girl[Em]
For years in dusty attics you could find[C]
Where the mad and voiceless where con[Bm]fined
[CHORUS]
