Ghost Town Blues

	  		
Intro: C# E F# 

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 

     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 

     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 three 

   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

The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
