Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]A w[G]hite ghost,[D]
[Bm]maki[D]ng his[G] way[D] up the west coa[Bm]st[A][D]
Trying to focus his [Dm]high [G]hop[C]es
on a vagina [Bm]or two
He's [C]taking his [G]chances
Mean[Bm]while, [D]back in his living room
Bright smiles are watching his
toddler run [Dm]speed [G]tri[C]als
Over a grandmother's [Bm]rug
And [C]nature ad[G]vances[Bb]

[Verse 2]
Up the [Gm]inter[C]state
[A]He's bee[C#dim]n awake[Dm]
[Bb]And pretty drunk[C] for three[Am] whole[Bb] days
No one [Gm]wants [C]to stop
[A]Until[C#dim] they get[A] to[Dm][C]
[Am]where they're go[Bb]ing
I'll get [C]to [Am]where I'm go[Bb]ing [C#dim]pretty soo[A]n

[Verse 3]
So he [D]takes an[G]other [C]drink[Am]
'Cause watching [A]the scenery [G]bleed
[Gm]In to each similar s[D]cene
Isn't as [Bm]sweet as [A]it had [Em]been [C#dim]in his[Bb]
[Gm]drea[C]ms[A][Dm][Bb][C]
[Am][Bb][Gm][A]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]It's[Em] faste[D]r to buy cigarettes
and some [Em]cold [D]beer
If you don't rattle the [Dm]cash[C]ier
By asking her back to your [Em]room
She's [A]calling [G]security

[Verse 5]
Our car's on [G]fire in [Gdim]the parking lot[G]
[A]And nob[G]ody wants it to rai[D]n[A]
[D]But God isn't listening
So all of the wind[G]shields glisten
[D]The wat[G]er and[Gdim] oil mix[G]
[C#dim]Causing t[G]he fire to spread[A][D][A]
[D]To five or six innocent automobiles
[A]Waiting in their nearby spots[G]
What a cruel God we've [D]got
[Bm]Right

[Verse 6]
[F#m]on,[D][C][D]
right on, right [G]on
Right on, [A]right [C#dim]on[D]
Right [Bm]on, [D]right on, [F#m]right [D]on[G][D]
Right [G]on, [A]right [C#dim]on

[Verse 7]
So he [D]takes another [G]drink[Am]
'Cause watching the formula [G]bleed
[Gm]In to each similar t[D]hing
Isn't as [Bm]sweet as [A]it had [Em]been [A]in [D]his dreams
