[Intro]
N.C.
Yeah, I want it to sound 
like empty and hollow...
C            
  Like that, 
                Am  Fsus2  C
  just like that

[Verse]
         C
Well, my eyes are wide open
And my heart is in ocean
       Am
That all these bridges I burned
In my past seem to float
          Fsus2
And every lie I've ever told
                       C
Goes up in flames on a Sunday 
after church
    C
Yet no one in this town 
seems to remember my name
      Am
After all the things 
we've been through
Sneakin' jack and football games
        Fsus2
But it's all the same
                         C
No one evеr changes in a place 
like this
        C
Wеll, I needed that woman 
like a bird needs a nest
  Am
I was my own accompany on 
this lifelong quest
  Fsus2
A mind to find the reason behind
   C
Why God put me on this earth

[Chorus]
                Am
Somebody get me out
        Fsus2               C
of this ghost town that I'm in
                 Am
Nobody will ever know
       Fsus2        C
If I'm comin' back again
                Am
Somebody get me out
        Fsus2               C
Of this ghost town that I'm in
                 Am
Nobody will ever know
       Fsus2        C
If I'm comin' back again

[Verse]
        C
Well, I went and jointed the navy
Just for my daddy's sake
        Am
So he'd stop tellin' 
all his friends
I was his one mistake
       Fsus2
And he told me he was proud
For the first time
                 C 
in a long time yesterday
      C
And I need my mama like 
musicians need their dream
          Am
Yeah, she told me I'd be famous
And all the girls would scream
        Fsus2
For her son up in the lights
I get so mad I fight
          C
She's not with me here today
C
Who is this big God to make
A busted boy like me
Am
All my imperfections are 
apart of His carpentry
      Fsus2
And I hope I get to ask Him
                               C
Why He put me through all this pain 
one day

[Outro]
                Am
Somebody get me out
        Fsus2               C
of this ghost town that I'm in
                 Am
Nobody will ever know
       Fsus2        C
If I'm comin' back again
                Am
Somebody get me out
        Fsus2               C
Of this ghost town that I'm in
                 Am
Nobody will ever know
       Fsus2        C
If I'm comin' back again
                 Am
Nobody will ever know
          Fsus2        C
I'm never comin' home again
