( 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

where you ( G ) come from baby , cause theres ( 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 wouldnt give in to ( Em ) it
its been ( G ) years , since ive ( 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 )
