Weighty Ghost Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got out of bed today, swear to God, I couldn't see my face
I got out of bed today, staring at a ghost
Who forgot to float away, didn't have all that much to say
Wouldn't even tell me his own name
And where'd my body go

[Pre-Chorus]
Where, oh, where'd my body go?
Africa or Mexico?
Where, oh, where'd my body go?
Where'd my body go?

[Chorus]
Have you seen my ghost?
Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?
Oh, have you seen my ghost
Staring at the ground?
Have you seen my ghost?
Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?
Oh, have you seen my ghost?
Sick of those goddamn clouds


[Verse 2]
Are you some kind of medicine man?
Cut the demons out of my head
You can't kill something that's already dead
So leave my soul alone
I don't need no surgery
Take those knives away from me
Just wanna die in my own body
A ghost just needs a home
[Chorus]
Have you seen my ghost?
Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?
Oh, have you seen my ghost
Staring at the ground?
Have you seen my ghost?
Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?
Oh, have you seen my ghost?
Sick of those goddamn clouds

[Bridge]
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Have you seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Oh, have you seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Staring at the ground?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Have you seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Seen my ghost, seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Oh, have you seen my ghost?)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
(Sick of those goddamn clouds)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
[Outro]
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
