[G] Well, [C] I was walking [D] real [Dm] fast.
I was too [G] scared to run
[Gm] [D] [F]
[G] [Gm] Past this lonesome [D] graveyard [Dm] where the [Gm] highway meets the Sun
[Cm] Well that old graveyard's been around since [Ab] the Civil War.
[G] [Gm] I [Bb] had a funny feeling [D] that [F] I'd been here [G] before

[Gm] I heard a [D] voice that was [Dm] talking [Gm] real slow
She said it's [D] time to make a [F] choice
[Gm] Yes, or is it no?
[Cm] I said [Gm] okay, do what you [Ab] wanna do
[Gm] Then she took me [Dm] to a world, a world [Gm] I never [F] knew
[Bb] [Eb] When we danced [Bb] so close
[F] We were teenage [Gm] ghosts
[Eb] We were doing [Bb] that [F] graveyard waltz
[Eb] After all [Bb] is said and done
[F] We were just [Gm] too young
[Eb] To be doing [Bb] that [F] graveyard waltz
[Gm]
[F] [Bb] Graveyard [Eb] waltz
[F] [Gm] Next thing I [D] knew the [Dm] first dance [Gm] was done
[F] [Gm] But this magic [D] carpet ride had just [Gm] begun
[Bb] [Cm] And [Fm] heaven only [Gm] knows where she learned [Ab] to drive
[Gm] Right between the [D]
tombstones and the ones [Gm] still left alive
[Bb]
[Gm] And then that [D] old soul band began to [Gm] play
In triple [D] time she was [Gm] fainting still
[Cm] And when the [Gm]
masquerade had started [Ab] up again
[Gm] She said this is the [Dm] night, the night that [Gm] never [F] ends
[Bb] [Eb] When we danced so [Bb] close
[F] We were teenage [Gm]
ghosts
[Eb] We were doing [Bb] that graveyard waltz
