Verse 1:
 
Em          C          Am             Bm
Say you stay at home, alone with the flu
Em                C  Am             Bm
Find out from friends that wasn't true
Em          C                       Am      Bm
Go out at night with your headphones on, again
Em                       C             Am       Bm
And walk through the Manhattan valleys of, the dead
 
 
Chorus:
 
               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
    Am                     C   Dm                    G
But I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else
 
 
Verse 2:
 
Em         C         Am             Bm
You said I came close as anyone's come
Em           C    Am                 Bm
to live underwater for more than a month
Em               C             Am       Bm
  You said it was not inside my heart, it was
Em                    C          Am        Bm
  You said it should tear a kid apart, it does
 
 
Chorus:
 
               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
    Am                     C   Dm                    G
But I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else
 Am                   C     Dm                    G
I don't want anybody else, I don't want anybody else
 
 
Bridge:
 
        Am                C                            Em
I had a hole in the middle where the lightning went through it
           G
told my friends not to worry
Am        C                              Em
I had a hole in the middle someone's sideshow wouldn't do it 
             G
I told my friends not to worry
 
 
Chorus:
 
               C        Am                   Em            G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost
               C        Am                  Em             G
Didn't want to be your ghost, didn't want to be anyone's ghost

Not bad, but some of the chords are off. The D in the verses and the Em in the chorus sound wrong.

I agree. I think I should change the D in the verse to Bm. Not sure what to do about the Em in the chorus though. Suggestions?

transposed to Am sounds the best, but the chorus is wrong with the C
