Ghosts Embodied chords by Nahko And Medicine For The People

Intro:
Am F


Verse 1:
          Am          F         G           Am
Well I'd like to be enjoying the hight of a giant
        Am       F           C G
or the will of a great chief son.
         Am               F              G                   Am
But I'm somewhere in the middle with my feet slipping of the pedals.
       Am        G              Am
I'm a two-legged bended wounded knee.

        Am                 F            G              Am
And my silence turned to thoughts in my constant disbelieve.
    Am          F           C G
I exist personified as the truth.
      Am                F                 G         Am
Do I live life like a thief or am I just reading energy?
              Am               G                   Am
That which I teach through my teeth 'comes what I preach.

       Am                 F                G            Am
Oh, I sure would like to live without the burden of commitment,
       Am            F                 C G
not attached to any person, place or thing.
          Am           F             G        Am
But it's such a heavy load to carry nowhere alone.
      Am          G Am
I am hopeful but tiring.


Chorus:
      Am        F     G          Am
Because some of us are ghosts embodied,
        Am        F            C  E
like a face or a figure in the flesh.
Am        F            G            Am
What you saw was a reflection of a moment.
        Am          G    C  E
It was never really ever there,
        Am          G    Am
it was never really ever there.


Interlude:
Am F


Verse 2:
        Am                   F            G            Am
Well I sure would like to thrust all my shadows to the dust,
       Am          F          C  G
to purify and may justice be served.
         Am             F        G              Am
Such and old man for a young man, understanding what he can
      Am          G     Am
of a blessing and of a curse.

      Am             F           G         Am
As a ghost taking a form a very temporary form,
       Am         F             C  G
may it be uncommonly found in a grove,
               Am         F              G        Am
I choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
        Am          G          Am
and I know I don't seek this alone.
        Am          G          Am
Yes I know I don't seek this alone.


Chorus:
      Am        F     G          Am
Because some of us are ghosts embodied,
        Am        F            C  E
like a face or a figure in the flesh.
Am        F            G            Am
What you saw was a reflection of a moment.
        Am          G    C  E
It was never really ever there,
        Am          G    Am
it was never really ever there.


Instrumental:
Am C F E
Am F


Verse 3:
        Am           F        G            Am
Well I like to set afoot and have myself a look
            Am          F        C  G
around the bend of the great red road.
        Am         F              G                Am
I would offer up a pipe for the chorus?:, for my life,
          Am          G          Am
for the guidance and wisdom to know... that...


Chorus:
Am        F     G          Am
some of us are ghosts embodied,
        Am        F            C  E
like a face or a figure in the flesh.
Am        F            G            Am
What you saw was a reflection of a moment.
        Am          G    C  E
It was never really ever there,
        Am          G    Am
it was never really ever there.


Outro:
               Am         F              G        Am
I choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
        Am          G         Am
and I know I don't seek this alone.
               Am         F              G        Am
I choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
        Am          G          Am
