C/B

G/B

[Intro]

C C/B Am G F

[Verse 1]

C C/B Am

I've been up and down the river

G F

seen the highways and back roads

C C/B Am

this country sure is beautiful

G F

but a byway ain't a home

C C/B Am

my eyes have gazed upon some land

G F

I thought I'd never see

C C/B Am

but it feels like someone else's life

G F

and it don't belong to me

[Chorus]

Am F

I'm so tired of being alone

in technicolor motels

watchin late night talking shows

Am F

lately I've felt like a road shot full of holes

leaving everything behind me

everywhere I go

this ain't my bed

G/B F

or what I chose

Am G/B

I used to be outnumbered

but now

I'm just a Ghost

C G/B Am G F

[Verse 2]

C C/B Am

I sure have missed my brother

G F

he just turned 25 years old

C C/B Am

I often have to ask myself

G F

where did little clay boy go

C C/B Am G F

I know that you can't stop or slow the pace of someone's age

C C/B Am

but to me it ain't worth missing

G F

just to have more console change

[Chorus]

Am F

I'm so tired of being alone

in technicolor motels

watchin late night talking shows

Am F

lately I've felt like a road shot full of holes

leaving everything behind me

everywhere I go

this ain't my bed

G/B F

or what I chose

Am G/B

I used to be outnumbered

but now

I'm just a Ghost

C G/B Am G F

[Verse 3]

C C/B Am G F

I hope the road remembers when I go and meet my maker

C C/B Am G

to send some flowers to my love

for not letting me take her

C C/B Am

I have longed for her so dearly

G F

for I've missed more than I've seen

C C/B Am G

spending all my time on mountain sides

with pumps for gasoline

[Chorus]

Am F

I'm so tired of being alone

in technicolor motels

watchin late night talking shows

Am F

lately I've felt like a road shot full of holes

leaving everything behind me

everywhere I go

this ain't my bed

G/B F

or what I chose

Am G/B

I used to be outnumbered

but now

I'm just a Ghost

C G/B Am G F
