Ghost of the Gang
guitar chords lyrics
Capo: II
Intro: G Am C C (x2)
(G)Jimmy died on his (Am)couch yesterday
A (C)friend of his ex-wife called me to say
He just (G)gave it to God, (Am)slipped from the living
With the (C)bills piling up and a back that was giving in (Em)
It�s been (G)years since I�ve (Am)seen anyone
(C)Now I�m sitting (Em)here, in the (G)dark
(Am)Stalling out in my (D)car
(C)Wishing I could bum a (G)light
From the (C)ghost of the gang (D)tonight
(G)Kathy lost a nephew under the (Am)wheels of a train
In a (C)midday suicide after a losing streak
He just (G)stood on the tracks and (Am)gave it to glory
(C)I never called her, to say I�m sorry, my (Em)friend
It�s been (G)years, but I�m (Am)thinking about you
(C)And all of your tears and I�m (Em)sitting here in the (G)dark
(Am)Afraid to make a stupid (D)call
(C)Wishing I could bum a (G)light
From the (C)ghost of the gang (D)tonight
(C)Tonight I�m gonna take that ride for
The (G)years we missed and the (D)friends that died
(C)Sideswiped baby on the road somehow with
A (G)pack of dreams that just (D)weren�t allowed
Maybe you�re (C)walking those halls all quiet and sad
Or (G)sitting in the dark all (D)scared and mad
Feel my (C)hand reach across and don�t forget
Where you (G)come from baby, �cause there�s (D)truth in (C)it
Yeah we (G)huddled against the (Am)cold in those days
By the (C)light of a fire in a pep-rally haze
With the (G)smoke and lives past, and a (Am)reason for living
No (C)matter how bad it got, we wouldn�t give in to (Em)it
It�s been (G)years, since I�ve (Am)seen anyone
(C)Or cried these tears now I'm (Em)sitting here in the (G)dark,
(Am)stalling out in my (D)car
(C)Wishing I could bum a (G)ride
From the (C)ghost of the (D)gang (G)tonight (Am)
(C)The ghost of the gang (G)tonight (Am)(C)(G)
