no one online had anything even close , so i thought i would contribute my version
( note : the actual chords are complex variations of this , but this works nicely for
an acoustic guitar )

* timing for the chord
changes are occasionally a bit off , listen to the song , they’re easy enough to figure out *

C Am F
if you really want to conjure up a ghost
C Am F G
cultivate a space for the things that hurt you most

Am C F
rake the sands until they surface
Em C F
bind their tiny eyes

C Am F
stake out your position , let your armor fall
C Am F G
stay put til they find you , it won’t take long at all

Am C F
rake the sands until they surface
Em C F
up they come , gone translucent

C Am F
they’re coming up no matter what
Am Em C G F
fools rush in and the doors slam shut

C Am F
ghosts of my childhood stay with me , if you will
C Am F G
find a place where there’s water , hold you under til you’re still

Am C F
rake the sands until they surface
Em C F
don’t let anybody call them ugly

alternate C and F for outro , end on C

thats it! beautiful song , enjoy playing it .
