Ghost Of The Gang

(início)

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