    FAm
The thunder cracks at the hills and plains,
      GAm
The rain does lash at your window pane.
       F     Am
I am the ghost of your past refrain,
         G       Am
Im your conscience, let me in, let me in,
         G                  Am
Im your conscience, let me in.


    FAm
You cannot bear to go on this way,
      G
Youve passed many trials,
               Am
But still you sway,
       F     Am
You know that something has to change,
         G       Am
And its weak to sit in blame, let me in.
         G       Am
Oh its weak to sit in blame.


    FAm
No, you cannot bear to go on this way,
      G
Youve passed many trials,
               Am
But still you sway,
       F     Am
You know that something has to change,
         G       Am
Or like me soon youll be a ghost, let me in,
         G       Am
Or soon youll be a shade.


The guitar in the song strums each chord once or twice every time, but you can strum it 
all the way through, which I think sound pretty nice.
