Bm
Take the salt from the sea
    G
the blood of the lamb
         Bm
when the moon's on the wane
     G
hung low on the land
           Bm
keep the spirits at bay
           G
close your eyes when you pray
      Bm
hurry home when you feel
         G
it's too cold and so still

[Chorus]
    A                  Bm
but never be afraid of ghosts my love
A                  G
never be afraid of ghosts
A                  Bm
never be afraid of ghosts my love
         A              F#m      G
it's the living that'll hurt you most
N.C
it's the living that'll hurt you

[Verse 2]
              Bm
When you hear whispers at doors
            G
where noone lives anymore
          Bm
bless yourself my poor child
            G
the devil's real and runs wild
               Bm
but there's no evil i've seen
      G
in my shadowy dreams
           Bm
that could ever compare
        G
to what happens out there

[Chorus]
    A                  Bm
but never be afraid of ghosts my love
A                  G
never be afraid of ghosts
A                  Bm
never be afraid of ghosts my love
         A              F#m      G
it's the living that'll hurt you most
N.C
it's the living that'll hurt you

[Verse 3]         
         Bm   
take the road from the sea
           G
past the cemetery
        Bm
ask the angels above
      G
to protect you my love
              Bm
'cause in the human heart dwells
     G
more demons than hell
            Bm
filled with envy and pride
       G
if you can't run then hide

[Chorus]
    A                  Bm
but never be afraid of ghosts my love
A                  G
never be afraid of ghosts
A                  Bm
never be afraid of ghosts my love
         A              F#m      G
it's the living that'll hurt you most
N.C
it's the living that'll hurt you
