Tuning: G C E A
There are a couple of little things you can do to make this song sound great
on the ukulele. One is to reach your thumb around to the A on the high G string
to play a Gadd9 (alternate). Or use a pinky reach the 5th fret on the E string (recommended).
The other is to remove the F on the E string to make it an Fmaj7.

[INTRO]
G Gadd9 G Gadd9
[VERSE]
G If you could Gadd9read my Gmind love
FWhat a tale my Fmaj7thoughts could Ftell
G Just like an Gadd9old time Gmovie
F'Bout a ghost from a Fmaj7wishin' Fwell
G In a castlG7e dark or Ca fortress strong
With Dchains upon my Emfeet
You Cknow that ghost is Gme
And CI will never Bm7be set free
As Am7long as I'm a D7ghost that you can't Gsee Gadd9
[VERSE]
G If I could read Gadd9your Gmind love
FWhat a tale your Fmaj7thoughts could Ftell
G Just like a Gadd9paperback Gnovel
FThe kind that Fmaj7drugstores Fsell
G When you reach the G7part where the Cheartaches come
The Dhero would be Emme
But Cheroes often Gfail
And Cyou won't read that Bm7book again
BecAm7ause the ending's D7just too hard to Gtake

[CHORUS]
G I'd walk aG7way like a Cmovie star
Who gets Dburned in a three way Emscript
CEnter number Gtwo
A Cmovie queen to Bm7play the scene
Of Am7bringing all the D7good things out in Emme
But for Cnow love, let's be Greal
I Cnever thought I could Bm7act this way
And I've Am7got to say that I D7just don't get it
I Cdon't know where Bm7we went wrong
But the Am7feelin's gone
And I D7just can't get it Gback Gadd9 G Gadd9

G Just like an Gadd9old time Gmovie
F 'Bout a ghost from a Fmaj7wishin' Fwell
G In a castle G7dark or a Cfortress strong
With Dchains upon my Emfeet
But Cstories always Gend
And Cif you read betBm7ween the lines
You'll Am7know that I'm just D7tryin' to underEmstand
The Cfeelin's that you Glack
I Cnever thought I could Bm7feel this way
And I've Am7got to say that I D7just don't get it
CI don't know where Dm7we went wrong
But the Am7feelin's gone
And I D7just can't get it Gback
