suggestions I would love to hear them.
Verse 1
I[A]n t[A2]his co[E]untry [C#m]at any gi[B]ven tim[E]e
There are t[A]wo million emp[A2]ty house[E]s
And [C#m]one of them once w[B]as mi[E]ne
There were [A]twelve million spiri[A2]ts drift[E]ing
In [C#m]twelve million em[B]pty ro[E]oms
Waving their ghostly a[A]rms at the stars
[A2]And howling sad songs by the l[C#m]ight of a cresc[B]ent mo[E]on
Yeah they c[B]law at the air and they s[C#m]cream
But they don't make a so[A]und
Should've exer[B]cised the demons and their sec[C#m]rets
While they were 'ro[A]und
Chorus
[E]Don't you think it's funny how qui[B]ckly things can turn aro[A]und
[E]All our lives are drifting like gh[B]osts inside and empty ho[A]use
[B]Everything is falling to pi[C#m]eces and its just as w[A]ell
[B]Because every little piece of heaven br[C#m]ings a little piece of he[A]ll
Verse 2 (Same as Verse 1)

So you might f[A]ind yourself drifting
[A]Like a ghosts inside em[A]pty house after em[A]pty house
Looking[A] for someone but la[B]tely finding not a soul to [E]tell
