I greeted death like an old familiar friend
    Bm                   C
And we haven’t spoken in awhile
    G          Bm                C
But I knew it wouldn’t be long until we meet again
          Bm                            C
How could I forget that lonesome, boney smile?

G        Bm             Em                 C
Skeleton man, won’t you take my stone-cold hand?
G                  Bm                Em                     C
No need to stress, no need to worry, now that my dreams are dead
G                 Bm        Em                C
Phantom in black, won’t you take the long way back?
G                  Bm                Em                     C
No need to stress, no need to worry, no need to change your plans,
             G      Bm       Em       C
just take it slow
        G       Bm       Em       C       G
Skeleton ghost

       Bm           Em
Me and Death, we go way back
         Bm                              C
We first met when I was younger, with my favorite childhood pet
G                    Bm                   Em         C
Then when I bеcame a man, Death and I got acquainted fast
G                       Bm
Thеn through the years, the blood, sweat, and tears
      Em                C
I’m afraid he’s my only friend
    G         Bm         Em               C
But I cheated Death at a high-stakes poker bet
    G                     Bm                Em         C
And our friendship hasn’t been the same way since

G        Bm             Em                 C
Skeleton man, won’t you take my stone-cold hand?
G                  Bm                Em                     C
No need to stress, no need to worry, now that my dreams are dead
G          Bm      Em                       C
Phantom in black I know there’s no easy way back
        G                  Bm                Em                     C
There’s no need to stress, no need to worry, no need to change your plans, just take it slow
             G      Bm       Em       C
just take it slow
        G       Bm       Em       C       G
