Intro

x2

Verse 1

Young man with a stone to throw

Take a breath and just let it go

Angry man with a cross to bare

Now you seem life just isn’t fair

Bridge 1

Oh, let it go

Cos, you wake up in happy days

Face the music

In your eyes you’ve made your bed

Chorus

Read what the papers say

Your dancing days are over

The smile on your face will never hide your shame

You can’t escape what they say

Your dancing days are over

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

Verse 2

Oh how you danced

Oh how you sang

There’s a feeling here that you began

Oh how you stood and stared

Held onto every breath

It seemed the world stood still

Transfixed by every step

Bridge 2

Oh, let it go

Cos a lesser man would be your crowd

Captivation, lesser men will tear you down

Chorus

Post chorus

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The very crowd demand it's not to blame

The demi man celebrates his pain

So glad to be with him through your pain

Middle 8

Old man sings his final song

And wonders where it all went wrong

Chorus x2

Outro

The ghosts you see are shouting out your name

The very crowd demands it's not to blame

The demi man celebrates his pain

(Finish)

So glad to be with us through your pain
