Rina Sawayama - Phantom Chords

[intro]
G

[verse 1]
G             G/F#             Em
Once upon a time, there was a girl,
            C
pleasing the world
G             G/F#              Em
Dying to be liked, looking for love,
          C
wanting to trust

[pre-chorus]
C
 Stickers and scented gel pens
Bm                 B
 Give possessions, get friends
Em                              C
 Breaking off pieces, things started to change
C
 I've been tryin' to find her since
Bm                  B          Em E
 She gave a little too much away

[chorus]
              F           G      D
I don't wanna do this without you
                         Em
I don't wanna do this if you're
                     C
just a ghost in the night
        G                          D
I tried everything to fill up the void
                         C    Cm
that you left me with, my phantom (Phantom)

[post-chorus]
G     D  Em    C
 Phan-tom, phantom

[verse 2]
   G                 G/F#
If I could talk to you, I'd tell
           Em                 C
you not to rush, you're good e-nough
G                    G/F#             Em
You don't have to lose what makes you you,
               C            Cm
still got some growin' to do

[pre-chorus]
C
 When did we get so estranged?
Bm                 B
 Haunted by the way I've changed
Em                             C
 Claiming back the pieces of me that I've lost
C
 Reaching in and hoping you're still
Bm                  B
 Waiting by the windowsill,
     Em               Cm
I'd bring you back to us

[chorus]
              F           G      D
I don't wanna do this without you
                         Em
I don't wanna do this if you're
                     C
just a ghost in the night
        G                          D
I tried everything to fill up the void
                         C    Cm       G
that you left me with, my phantom (Phantom)

[bridge]
   G
Ooh, I was wrong to assume
D
 I would ever outgrow you
F
 I need you now, I need you close
C
 how do you hold a ghost?
G
 Inner child, come back to me
D                             C          Cm
 I want to tell you that I'm sorry, I'm sorry

just a ghost in the night
        G                          D
I tried everything to fill up the void
                         C    Cm
that you left me with, my phantom
                          G      D
I don't wanna do this without you

Don't wanna do this
    Em                       C
if you're locked away in my mind
        G                          D
I tried everything to fill up the void
                         C    Cm       G
that you left me with, my phantom (Phantom)
