Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Wel[Em]l I d[G]ec[Em]ided
to take the bus
[G]It was about 6:05
[Em]'Cause I could hardly walk
In fact, I was just barely alive
Under the bridges and over the street
Now every shadow that I meet
They [A]all know my [Em]name
And they whisper
[A]"What's a [G]matter hon
[D]Don't you kno[G]w you're riding[Em]

[Verse 2]
on the ghost train"
[G]
Jupiter [Em]Ray on the bus
I remember when Jupiter
came to town
He was one of the best [G]of us
Oh, that stuff can [Em]really take you down
Hey, Jupiter Ray is on the bus
I remember when Jupiter was alive
Come to think of it
You all have a strange
translucence in your eyes
[A]What's a matter son?
[D]Don't you know you're riding
[Em]on the g[G]host t[Em]rain
[A]

[Verse 3]
You just buy [G]your ticket
[Em]And get on board
This train [D]don't stop
[G]'Cause we like [A]to ride, [Em]ride ride ride
We just want [A]to ride, ride [C]ride [Em]ride

[Verse 4]
[Em]
Ding goes the trolley
Bang goes the bell
Some[Eb]body [Em]call my second cousin
I'm [B]not feeling [Em]very well

[Verse 5]
This is where little blondes check- [Em]in their
furs
This is where little blondes
check- in their hat
Don't worry about where you were at
We took [A]care of that

[Verse 6]
[Em]Mr driver is [G]this my stop?
[A]Mr [G]driver tell me how to [Em]get off
Any [D]way you can, any way
Come [Em]back into the light

[Verse 7]
You want to get to heaven
Take the devil by the hand
[D]And you slide [G]rig[Em]ht into the
promised [F#]land
'Cause this could be
[Em]the night
And this could be [F#]the gate[Em]
Everybody's waitin' [F#]for [Em]you darlin'
So don't [F#]be late[Em]
[A]What's a matter honey?
[D]Didn't you pay [Em]your money for

[Verse 8]
the ghost train?
[Em]
Well I decided to take the bus
It was about 6:05
'Cause I could hardly walk
In fact, I was just barely
