The Dundee Ghost

Am Now a deid man seldom walks, He very rarely talks Dm Am It's no' very often you'll find him runnin' aroond Am But I am a refugee, Fae a graveyard in Dundee Dm Am And I've come tae haunt some hooses in Glesga toon Dm Am I've come tae haunt some hooses in Glesga toon Am The reason I arose, Was tae get masel' some clothes Dm Am For it really gets hell of a cauld below the grun Am But I whispered tae masel, "Ach, I think I might as well Dm Am Hing aroond for a while and haе some fun Dm Am Hing aroond for a while and hae somе fun." Am A man put oot his light, On a cold and wintery night Dm Am I showed him one of my eyes and slapped his heid Am He says "Oh!" and I says "Boo!" He says "Who the hell are you?" Dm Am I said "Dinnae be feart, I'm only a man that's deid Dm Am "Dinnae be feart I'm only a man that's deid." Am When the fella knelt and prayed, and this was what he said: Dm Am "Why in the name of God have you picked on me?" Am So I pulled away his rug, And I skelpt him one on the lug Dm Am "The reason," says I, "I'll very soon let you see" Dm Am "The reason," says I, "I'll very soon let you see" Am When he brought the polis in, a battered him one on the chin Dm Am The polis turned aroond and he blamed my friend Am He marched him to the jail, he'll be in there quite a while Dm Am But I'll see naebody rents his single end Dm Am I'll see naebody rents his single end Am Now the polis thought him daft, and a lot of people laughed Dm Am When the fella said a ghost was in his house Am But what the fella said was true, and I might be visitin' you Dm Am So just remember I'm still on the loose Dm Am Just remember I'm still on the loose
