Only If For a Night

C              Am
         And I had a dream
C           G
         About my old school
C             Am                 
         And she was there all 
                    C  G
pink and gold and glittery
                      C           
         I threw my arms around her 
Am
legs
                 C     G          
         Came to weeping, came to 
C     Am
weeping
         Came to weeping, came to 
C     Am
weeping

                   C         Am
         Then I heard your voice as 
clear as day,
C           G             C   
         And you told me I should 
Am
concentrate,
  C            G
         It was all so strange,
C           Am
         And so surreal,
                   C         G    
         That a ghost should be so
    C   Am
 practical.

                C   G
         Only if for a night
C             Am                 
         And the only solution 
     C           G
was to stand and fight,
                C      Am
         And my body was loosened,
                                 C 
         I almost saved your life,
   G

                 C         Am
         But you came over me like 
some holy life,
C        G                        C
         And I know the whole story,
                Am
         You're the only light
                C   G
         Only if for a night

C            Am              
         The grass was so green 
               C       G
against my new clothes,
                    C           
         And I did cartwheels in 
  Am              C       G
your honour, dancing on tiptoes
Continues after the ad
                 C          Am    
         My own secret ceremonials
            C         G
 before the service began,
                C      Am      
         In the graveyard, doing 
      C    G
handstands.

                    C         Am
         Then I heard your voice as 
clear as day,
C           G             C   
         And you told me I should 
Am
concentrate,
  C            G
         It was all so strange,
C           Am
         And so surreal,

         That a ghost should be so
