Well I finally got around to finishing this, although there really isn’t that much too it. The chords are played like this: Am7 Am6 D9 E7+9 E|----------(5)-----| B|-10---10---5---8—| G|-12---11---5---7—| D|-10---10---4---6—| A|-----------5---7—| E|-12---12----------|
I find this fingering easier to use, though it’s the same thing essentially.
Am7 Am6 E|-5----5---| B|-8----7---| G|-5----5---| D|-7----7---| A|-0----0---| E|----------| Listen to a tape for the timing, its pretty simple but hard to describe here. Also, Trey doesn’t always play the Am6, leaving it to Page.
Am7 Am6 I feel I’ve never told
Am7 Am6 you the story of the
Am7 Am6
ghost who I once knew and
Am7 Am6 talked to of whom I’d never boast
D9 But this was my big secret
D9 How I get ahead
D9 And never have to worry
D9 E7+9 I’d call him instead
Am7 Am6
His answer came in action
Am7 Am6 He never spoke a word
Am7 Am6 Or maybe I lay down the
Am7 Am6 phone before he could be heard
D9 I somehow feel forsaken
D9 Like he had closed the door
D9 I guess I just stopped needing him
D9 Am7 I much as once before
Jam over 1 verse of chords; Am7 to Am6, then D9 part
Am7 Am6 But maybe he’s still
Am7 Am6 with me the latch was left unhooked
Am7 Am6 He’s waiting in the wind and rain
Am7 D9 I simply haven’t looked
Am7 Am6 I feel I never told you
Am7 Am6 A7#9 (4x) the story of the ghost
Jam on Am7 Am6
That’s it. Suggestions welcome.

For the most part it’s all:
G |------------------------------------------- D |--------7---------------------7----------- A |------7---------------------7------------- E |---5---------5-5--------5----------5-5---
That repeats a lot. Im not sure of the slap section, but when they come back in from that little break and Trey’s pick slide, it’s:
G |------------- D |---5---7--- A |------------ E |-----------
Thats all the important stuff
