[Intro]
Am 

[Verse 1]
Am                        G
Where the street becomes a wall
    Em           Am
The spectre fell against it
          G       Am
Without a cry or a wail
Am          G
Here in the darkness
    Em                   Am
His black and green will ram
Am                      G
There's no more lack of conscience
     Em          Am
That isn't due a plan


[Chorus]
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre


[Verse 2]
    Am             G
The spectre had no food
    Em             Am
The spectre was in guilt
Am                 G
He had no light, he had no light
    Em         Am
His shadow overspilled
   C                 G
And 'cross the rugged ranges
   Em              Am
Of curbs and broken minds
Am                 G
The spectre wasn't finished
    Em      F   G Am
The spectre was denied


[Chorus]
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre


[Verse 3]
Am                G
Behold the shining silver
     Em               Am
Of a coin held in your hand
Am                 G
The  spectre isn't greedy
   Em              Am
He recalls he is a man
C                    G
While all through the midnight
  Em            Am
Oppression only cries
Am              G
See, oh see the spectre
Em             F   G Am     
Caught for the compromise


[Chorus]
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre
F G     Am
Oh, the spectre


[End]
Am                        G
Where the street becomes a wall
    Em           Am
The spectre fell against it
          G       Am
Without a cry or a wail
          G       Am    Em   Am   Em   Am
Without a cry or a wail
