A A7
You were the promise at dawn
D A
I was the morning after
A A7
You were Jesus Christ my Lord
D A
I was the money lender
D
You were the sensitive woman
A
I was the very reverend Freud
D
You were the manual orgasm
A E
I was the dirty little boy
F#m
And is this what you wanted
G F#m
To live in a house that is haunted
E A
By the ghost of you and me
F#m
Is this what you wanted
G F#m
To live in a house that is haunted
E A
By the ghost of you and me
You were Marlon Brando
I was Steve McQueen
You were К.Y. Jelly
I was Vaseline
You were the father of modern medicine
I was Mr. Clean
You were the whore and the beast of Babylon
I was Rin Tin Tin
And is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted
By the ghost of you and me
And is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted
By the ghost of you and me
You got old and wrinkled
I stayed seventeen
You lusted after so many
I lay here with one
You defied your solitude
I came through alone
You said you could never love me
I undid your gown
And is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted
By the ghost of you and me
And is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted
By the ghost of you and me
I mean is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted
By the ghost of you and me
That’s right, is this what you wanted
To live in a house that is haunted…
