Intro: (D) (A) (D) (A)

I'm a ghost on the (A) radio
A needle on the (E) vinyl
A country boy survi(Bm)val
The bottom of a (D) bottle
I'm a fightin' side of (A) you and me
And my heart's down in (E) Tennessee

  And I sing songs about (A) freight trains and prisons
  Heartaches and honky-tonks
  And (E) cowboys and outlaws
  Good-hearted women
  In (Bm) boots and straw hats
  All gone, just like that
  (D) They can't even recognize (E) me
  They used to call me (A) Country (D) (A) 

Used to have cool names like (A) 'Willie' and 'Waylon'
'Merle' and 'Hank'
We (E) all stood together
We sang and we drank
(D) Chased the white lines
Night after (E) night

  Singin' songs about (A) freight trains and prisons
  Heartaches and honky-tonks
  And (E) cowboys and outlaws
  Good-hearted women
  In (Bm) boots and straw hats
  All gone, just like that
  (D) They can't even recognize (E) me
  They used to call me (A) Country

Like an (E) Old Viol(A)in
Put away and never (E) played again
Paycheck and (Bm) Cash
Naw, they ain't comin' (E) back

  Cause they did songs about (A) freight trains and prisons
  Heartaches and honky-tonks
  And (E) cowboys and outlaws
  Good-hearted women
  In (Bm) boots and straw hats
  All gone, just like that
  (D) They can't even recognize (E) me
  They used to call me (A) Country

(A) They used to call me (E) Country
I'm a thing of the (Bm) past (D) (Bm) (D) 

(n.c.) I'm a ghost on the radio
