Ghost In Every Town

Tom: Em

Em   F#/A   G    Am  Am/B   C    D


[Verse 1]
            Em                               F#/A   G
The kind of country store where you can only pay in cash
         Am                   Am/B     C      D
For a Power Ball and a gallon worth of gas
            Em                              F#/A  G
The kind of day that you wash down with a second beer
               Am                  Am/B    C   D
In the kind of bar where you go to disappear


[Verse 2]
            Em                      F#/A    G
The kind of pills that gets you through a shift
             Am                      Am/B      C     D
Numb the backpain when there's heavy loads to lift
             Em                     F#/A   G
The kind of frozen food that passes for a meal
             Am                    Am/B    C     D
The kind of desperate that forces you to kneel


[Chorus]
C      Em               D      C
Every day just like the one before
Em            D             C
That's your bodies breakin' down
Em           D                   C
They make a year that's like the one before
Em             D              C
You're still a ghost in every town
Em             D              C
You're still a ghost in every town


[Verse 3]
            Em                          F#/A   G
The kind of trailer park where people come and go
        Am                        Am/B     C      D
But you pay on time and keep the curtains closed
            Em                          F#/A   G
The kind of Christmas that brought a three day storm
        Am                        Am/B     C      D
And you burned up all the propane stayin' warm
            Em                         F#/A   G
The kind of winter days that's dark by four o'clock
           Am                    Am/B     C      D
You gotta brace yourself just to take a walk
            Em                 F#/A    G
The kind of cold that gets inside your bones
            Am                  Am/B   C      D
The kind of howlin' you can only do alone


[Chorus]
C      Em               D      C
Every day just like the one before
Em            D             C
That's your bodies breakin' down
Em           D                   C
They make a year that's like the one before
Em             D              C
You're still a ghost in every town
Em             D              C
You're still a ghost in every town
Em             D              C
You're still a ghost in every town
