Casper The Friendly Ghost Tab

by Daniel Johnston


This is a super simple song. the "hi how are
you" version is in g. this one (from "yip/jump") is in c.

it goes cfcg all the way through but i put the words
and chords to make it even super easier to just sit
there and play it.

       
He was smilin through his own personal hell
             
Threw his last coin in a wishing well
           
He was hoping too close and then he fell
                           
Now hes casper the friendly ghost.
           
He was always polite to the people who'd tell him

He was nothin but a wothless bum
        
but goodbye to them its time to go
                            
now he's casper the frindly ghost
        
Nobody treated him right when he was alive
          
You can't buy no respect like the librarian said
    
But everybody respects the dead,
                     
They love the frindly ghost
                 
They say "We'll never forget what he learned us
        
We were mean to him but he never burned us.

Love lasts forever. Thank you
                    
casper the friendly ghost."
