Stay with me for a little while you’ve nowhere to go and i’ve nowhere to go it makes me so happy when you smile at me work all your life and you end up with nothing live in one room like a bum o
Flew in a plane and i fought in a war we lived in a castle and slept on the floor and i don’t want to be all alone anymore i’m sorry out in the street there’s little colored kids playing where
N little boy used to play so i sit in this chair and i ache with the gout and i talk to myself ‘cause i’m scared to go out and i just want to know what was it all about i’m sorry

Ghosts (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Written and composed by michael jackson and teddy riley

There’s a ghost down in the hall
There’s a ghoul upon the bed
There’s something in the walls
There’s blood up on the stairs
And it’s floating through the room
And there’s nothing i can see
And i know that that’s the truth
Because now it’s onto me

I don’t understand it
Hey
I don’t understand it!
Aaow

There’s a tappin’ in the floor
There’s a creak behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But there’s no-one sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin’ and a yawnin’
Where a restless soul is going

Don’t understand it
Hey!
Don’t understand it
Hey.

And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy

There’s a tappin in the floor
There’s a creak behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But nobody’s sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coughin’ and a yawnin’
Where a restless soul is going

Don’t understand it!
Yeah yeah!
Don’t understand it!
Your just a dog gone!
Aaow!

And who gave you the right to scare my family?
And who gave you the right to scare my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take intrusion, to see me?
And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back,
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
A suckin’ ghost of jealousy
Aaow!

And who gave you the right to shake my family?
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
And who gave you the right to take, intrusion to see me?
And who gave you the right to hurt my family?
And who gave you the right hurt my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree?
You put a knife in my back
Shot an arrow in me!
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy

Aaow
Dog gone
But there’s no doubt about it, piece of mind
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy

Ghosts (Letra)

Writers: leo sayer, les nicol & frank farrell

Ghosts
People that i left behind
Wondering lonely in the night
All in my memory

Dreams
Long forgotten flights of time
Flashbacks flooding through my mind
Of all the things you said to me

In the shadows where i walk
In the silence
The wind talks of you
Like a ghost
Haunting the night
So you wander through my life

Ghosts
People that i don’t believe
Just what they’ve got to do with me
Oh — i can’t see it

Ghosts
Long forgotten — in time
Look at those flashbacks
Flooding through my mind
Of all the things you’ve said to me

In the shadows where i walk
In the silence
The wind talks of you
Just like a ghost
Haunting the night
You know you wander through my life

Ghosts (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Why are you frightened – can’t you see that it’s you
That ain’t no ghost – it’s a reflection of you
Why do you turn away – an’ keep it out of sight
Oh – don’t live up to your given roles
There’s more inside you that you won’t show

But you keep it hidden just like everyone
You’re scared to show you care – it’ll make you vulnerable
So you wear that ghost around you for disguise

But there’s no need just ‘cos it’s all we’ve known
There’s more inside you that you haven’t shown

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

One day you’ll walk right out of this life
And then you’ll wonder why you didn’t try

To spread some loving all around
Old fashioned causes like that still stand
Gotta rid this prejudice that ties you down

How do you feel at the end of the day
Just like you’ve waked over your own grave

So why are you frightened – can’t you see that it’s you
At the moment there’s nothing – so there’s nothing to lose
Lift up your lonely heart and walk right on through

Ghosts (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Running along the rocks of the river
And the water’s as cold as the snow
The man is chasing behind me
And I can’t afford to falter or slow
I find solace in what we believe
Or the hush of a cool gentle rain
But there’s something we love in the mystery
Of a man in the midst of a change

She laughed and said I was going nowhere
‘Cause it’s nowhere that she’s ever been
When I get to that place she’ll remember my face
And say “Hey man, I knew him when he was younger”
But she never loved me at al

She laughed when I was in pain
‘Cause there’s something that we are all frightened of
In the man in the midst of a change

Out on the roof to inquire of the sky
The existence of ghosts in my life
Who’s to blame you or I?
No one would answer me
They just stared with the weight of the world I pretend not to feel

The windmill is poised for the battle
But the fool understands not the game
He believes in his mission, predestined position
Amazing the grace of her name
Oh he loves her now as he loved her then
Rocinante rememebers the days
When I whistled and sat waiting patiently
With the man in the midst of a change

Running along the rocks of the river
With the freedom to step where I choose
Though I can’t stop to rest I like traveling best
And besides, I’ve got nothing to lose from it
I find solace in all the extremes
In pleasure as well as in pain
I just wish he would let me explain to you
The man in the midst of a change

All I ever wanted was to feel the way you’d feel
All I ever wanted was a chance to make it real

I’m in love with you
And I can pull it through

All I ever wanted is a place out by the sun
To watch the world go by and take each day as it comes
All I ever wanted was a chance to catch my breath
To see the world go by and lay my ghosts to rest

Give me a chance to catch my breath
So I can lay my ghosts to rest

So ask me tomorrow what I thought of yesterday
There’s so many things that I could not explain

I’m in love with you
And I can pull it through

All I ever wanted is a place out by the sun
To watch the world go by and take each day as it comes
All I ever wanted was a chance to catch my breath
To see the world go by and lay my ghosts to rest

Give me a chance to catch my breath
So I can lay my ghosts to rest

All that I-i ever wanted was a chance to catch my breath
All that I-i ever wanted was to lay my ghosts to rest

All that I-i ever wanted was a chance to catch my breath
All that I-i ever wanted was to lay my ghosts to rest

Sometimes, in the night i feel it
Near as my next breath
And yet, untouchable
Silently the past comes stealing
Like the taste of some forbidden sweet

Along the walls; in shadowed rafters
Moving like a thought through haunted atmospheres
Muted cries and echoed laughter
Banished dreams that never sank in sleep

Lost in love and found in reason
Questions that the mind can find no answers for
Ghostly eyes conspire treason
As they gather just outside the door …

Every ghost that calls upon us
Brings another measure in the mystery
Death is there
To keep us honest
And constantly remind us we are free

Down the ancient corridors
And through the gates of time
Run the ghosts of days
That we left behind

Down the ancient corridors
And through the gates of time
Run the ghosts of dreams
That we left behind

Sometimes, in the night i feel it
Near as my next breath and yet, untouchable
Silently the past comes stealing
Like the taste of some forbidden sweet

Every ghost that calls upon us
Brings another measure in the mystery
Death is there
To keep us honest
And constantly remind us we are free

Down the ancient corridors
And through the gates of time
Run the ghosts of days
That we left behind

Ghosts (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy, I’m awake
With no Bromo-Seltzer handy
I don’t even shake

Men are not a new sensation
I’ve done pretty well I think
But this half-pint imitation
Put me on the blink

I’m wild again, beguiled again
A simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

Couldn’t sleep and wouldn’t sleep
When love came and told me, I shouldn’t sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

Lost my heart, but what of it
He is cold I agree
He can laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh’s on me

I’ll sing to him, each spring to him
And long, for the day when I’ll cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

He’s a fool and don’t I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I’m in love and don’t I show it
Like a babe in arms

Love’s the same old sad sensation
Lately I’ve not slept a wink
Since this half-pint imitation
Put me on the blink

I’ve sinned a lot, I’m mean a lot
But I’m like sweet seventeen a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

I’ll sing to him, each spring to him
And worship the trousers that cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

When he talks, he is seeking
Words to get, off his chest
Horizontally speaking, he’s at his very best

Vexed again, perplexed again
Thank God, I can be oversexed again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – am I

Wise at last, my eyes at last,
Are cutting you down to your size at last
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – no more

Burned a lot, but learned a lot
And now you are broke, so you earned a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – no more

Couldn’t eat, was dispeptic
Life was so hard to bear
Now my heart’s antiseptic
Since you moved out of there

Romance, finis. Your chance, finis.
Those ants that invaded my pants, finis.
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered – no more

There’s a ghost down in the hall
There’s a ghoul upon the bed
There’s something in the walls
There’s blood upon the stairs
And it’s floating through the room
And there’s nothing I can see
And I know its restless tune
Because now it’s haunting me

I don’t understand it
Don’t understand it
Aoww!

There’s a thumping in the floor
There’s a creep behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But there’s no one sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found
And a coffin nearly open
Where a restless soul is floating

Don’t understand it
(Got a ghost, got a break in the walls)
(Got a ghoul, got a break in the halls)
(Got to see it, want to)
Don’t understand it
(Got a ghost, got a break in the walls)
(Got a ghoul, got a break in the halls)
(Got to see it, want to)
(Got a ghost, got a break in the walls)

And who gave you the right to scare my family
And who gave you the right to shake my baby, she needs me
And who gave you the right to shake my family tree

They put a knife in my back
Shot an arrow in me
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
The ghost of jealousy

There’s a thumping in the floor
There’s a creep behind the door
There’s a rocking in the chair
But nobody’s sitting there
There’s a ghostly smell around
But nobody to be found

Don’t understand it

You just don’t know

And who gave you the right to scare my family
And who gave you the right to scare my baby, she needs me

And who gave you the right to take intrusion to see me
And who gave you the right to shake my family
And who gave you the right to hurt my baby, she needs me

Shot an arrow in me
Tell me are you the ghost of jealousy
A suckin ghost of jealousy

A peice of mine

Bones shake
It’s lonely, it’s late
Footsteps echo
Glimmers of hate
Howling candles are blowing us out
What can I tell you?
It’s all going down

And there’s a silence deep down in my soul
Hard times just won’t let me go

And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless and headstrong
I’ve got them staring at back me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in
I won’t let them take me in

Angels crying
Lost in shame
Demons laughing
Playing the game

And there’s a silence deep down in my soul
Hard times just won’t let me go

And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless and headstrong
I’ve got them staring at back me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in

The days roll on
From dusk til dawn
For all time, all time
My faith is grown
The seeds we’ve sown
Will be alright, alright

There’s a silence deep down us all
And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless and headstrong
I’ve got them staring at back me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in
