VERSE 1
Am E
In a town in the woods at the top of a
C D
Hill there's a house where no one lives
F C D E
So you take a big bag of you big city money there and buy it
Am E
Then at night when the house dark
C D
And you're all alone there's a noise upstairs
F C D E
At the top of the stairs there's a door so you take a deep breath and try it
F C Dm Am
And the flashlight shows you something moving just inside the door
F C D E
There's a tattered dress and a feeling that you've felt somewhere before
CHORUS
Am F
And there's a creepy doll that always follows you
G F# G G# A
It's got a ruined eye that's always op-en
Am F
And there's a creepy doll that always follows you
G F# G G# A
It's got a pretty mouth to swallow you whole
VERSE 2
Am E
So you scream and you close the door
C D
And you tell yourself it was just a dream
F C D E
In the morning you head into town cause you want to go antiquing
Am E
In the store there's a strange old man
C D
With a wandering eye and a withered hand
F C D E
When he hands you the old wooden box you can hear his old bones creaking
F C Dm Am
And you know what you will find inside the moment that you see
F C Dm E
That someone carved your name into the tarnished silver key
[CHORUS]
BRIDGE
F C Dm Am
And when you come home late the doll is waiting there for you
F C Dm Am
And when you fix a snack the doll says it would like one too
F G F G
The doll is in your house and in your room and in your bed
F G F G
The doll is in your eyes and in your arms and in your head
C F D7 F
And you are crazy
VERSE 3
Am E
Now it's late and you head downstairs
C D
Cause you just can't sleep so you make some tea
F C D E
And the doll disapprovingly asks if you really need that much honey
Am E
You decide that you've had enough
C D
So you lock the doll in the wooden box
F C D E
You put the box in the fireplace next to your bag of big city money
F C Dm Am
As the smoke fills up your tiny room there's nothing you can do
F C Dm E
It's far too late, you see, the one inside the box is you
[CHORUS]
