[Intro] [clean electric guitar arpeggio, light bass] [Verse 1] [breathy male vocals] Ghost on the phone [kick drum enters] Death in the air Nothing but tone Line disconnected [Chorus] [distorted guitar power chords, heavy drums] Nobody's home, a hole in the road Six feet below But it's still warm, I'm calling your name But you don't respond, I'm calling your name Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's not what I think you do Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's true, I'm calling you [Verse 2] [drums drop out, clean electric guitar arpeggio] Flesh off the bones, cold as a stone Spirit unmoored, hanging around Seeing her knock on doors, I try to hold her [bass enters] She's passing right through I'm calling her name, she don't even move I'm calling her name [Chorus] [full band, distorted guitars] Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's not what I think you do Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's true, I'm calling you [Bridge] [half-time feel, palm-muted guitar] Why don't you pick up the phone? I don't understand You must be there I don't understand [crescendo] You must be there I don't understand I'm calling your name [Chorus] [full energy, heavy crash cymbals] Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's not what I think you do Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Say it ain't so, say it ain't true Tell me it's true, I'm calling you
