[VERSE ONE]

     C#              
Ever since my baby left me 
                         E        F#     C#   E F#
You know this ghost town ain't no fun no more 
    C#
She stole my heart away from me and then she
E          F#     C#    E F#                  
Dropped it on the floor 
   C#                  
My outsides are tough
                                  E    F#    C#  E F#
Hellbent leather overcoat of what once was a man 
    C#
But inside's a little broken hearted boy 
      E        F#        C#    
Whose feelings he cannot stand


[CHORUS]

     E         F#         C# 
I've got those ghost town blues
     E       F#      C# 
With nothing left to lose
    E     F#     C#                 
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
          E  F#   C#  E  F# C# E  F#
Mmm-hmmmm    yeah


[VERSE TWO]

  C#
I feel like an undertaker 
                     E      F#       C#   E F#
Dressed in black but no one left for dead
    C#   
She left me in a heartbeat
                               E     F#    C#   E F#
And now there's no one left to sleep in my bed 
      C#
Where laughs and cries and memories were once
            E     F#        C#   E F#
Now lie and tumbleweeds and dust
       C#
And an empty graveyard feeling that began once 
E         F#        C#   E F#
Just as a childhood lust


[CHORUS]

     E         F#         C# 
I've got those ghost town blues
     E       F#      C# 
With nothing left to lose
    E     F#     C#                 
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
          E  F#   
Mmm-hmmmm    yeah

[VERSE THDE ]

   C#                                      E   F#    C#    E F#
My pontiac spits back feelings of contempt out the exhaust
  C#
A hundred miles an hour down a highway 
         E       F#      C#   E F#
Well I'm beat up and I'm lost 
      C#                                     E   F#      C#    E F#
She's gone and I know it, like an outlaw she ran for the hills 
         C#
And I'll start a brand new life with a new girl 
          E        F#         C#
And those same old ghost town thrills

       
[CHORUS]

     E         F#         C# 
I've got those ghost town blues
     E       F#      C# 
With nothing left to lose
    E     F#     C#                 
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
     E         F#         C#    
I've got those ghost town blues
