- Ghost of the Man You Made

Intro

Verse 1 You want the man I was before The one who'd shake your hand at the store Who'd tip his hat and thank the law And swallow every crooked thing he saw That man believed you when you said The system works, so rest your head Then the system shook the wrong man's hand And I watched that good fool die where he did stand

Chorus I'm the ghost of the man you made The one your verdict left for dead You put a good man in the grave And raised up this one in his stead

Verse 2 You all moved on, you all forgot You brought the killer coffee, still hot Said, "life goes on," said, "let it lie" Well, somethin' in me went on to die

Chorus I'm the ghost of the man you made The one your verdict left for dead You put a good man in the grave And raised up this one in his stead

Bridge You don't get to build a monster Then act surprised it's at your door You chose which one of us would bury her Don't ask me to be the old one anymore I'm the ghost of the man you made The one your verdict left for dead You put a good man in the grave And raised up this one in his stead

Outro You made me. Live with it.
