Verse 

Gm	                Dm 
She's been a loner ever since she gave in 

       D#        Cm           Gm         D 
To the lingering ghost of her past   

Gm	                         Dm	 
And she was doing everything she could to stay still  

        D#          Cm	        Gm	 F 
But the grip of its hold was to last
