To Love What Isn’t There Uke tab by GraysBoxOfSOngs

C                   Dm
To love you is to love a ghost:
   Em                 F
I give, but don’t receive.
     C                Dm
You keep the love all to yourself,
       Em                F
don’t spare a crumb for me.

        Am                  F
Say you love me, but don’t show it.
       G          C
I’m invisible to you
        Am               F
Now my love for you is dead,
            G             C
And it lies in an empty tomb.

—nc—
Your love is nowhere to be found.

    C                Am
To love what isn’t there
        F                 G
When I go to you, you’re out somewhere.
    C                Am
To love what isn’t there.
            F                G
There’s a king-sized bed we used to share.
    Am                F
To love what isn’t there.
   C               G
I cry to you, but you just stare
    Am        F     C      G
To love what isn’t there, oh,
    Am        F      C
To love what isn’t there.

     C             Dm
To love you is to love something:
     Em         F
An imaginary friend!
              C                    Dm
When you’re young, they’re always there for you-
          Em        F
They’ll “never go away”.

              Am               F
When you grow up, they drift away from you.
      G                 C
The skies fade back to gray.
         Am            F
They’re never there forever.
       G             C
Their love has gone away.

    C                Dm
To lose you is like losing someone
 Em            F
Very close to you:
     C                   Dm
You cry, you mourn, for days and days
          Em              F
‘Till depression catches you.

        Am        —nc—
People tell you, “Just move on!”
     G                    C
Yet they don’t feel your pain.
    Am              F
To love you is to love a ghost…
        G               C
It’s difficult to stay sane.

    Am             Dm
To love you is to love a ghost:
      F                 G
I’m fallin’ apart each day.
   Am               Dm
I wait for you, but you don’t show–
          F         G
Love’s leading me astray.
    Am              F
My love for you is dead and gone-
      G             C
Like how you are to me.
    Am                F
I loved you how I’d love a ghost
    G                 C
I loved what wasn’t there.
    Am        G       C  Bdim
I loved what wasn’t there.

   Am          F      C
I loved what couldn’t be,
          Em
‘cause to me
                Am         F     C
You’re nothing more than just a mist.
    Am       G         C
My love for you is dismissed.
