[Verse]
F#m                E B F#m                E B
Phantom headlights,    broken white line
F#m                           E             B
Bloodstains on the highway,   glowing power lines
F#m                    E                  B
Signal thirty whispers softly through the pine
E                         F#m
He said that no one could take her away
E                          F#m
None that could tear them apart
E                               F#m
The song she was singing made a mans blood run cold
D                      B                N.C.
Like a moth in flames, torn from his heart


[Chorus]
F#m                Bsus2
Ghost on the road, ah      
F#m                Bsus2
Ghost on the road, ah      
F#m                Bsus2
Ghost on the road, ah     
F#m                Bsus2
Ghost on the road, ah     


[Verse]
F#m                E B F#m                E B
Flashing road signs    misty red eyes
F#m                  E             B
Lost on the highway, not a soul in sight
F#m                  E                  B
Endless black ribbon racing through the night
E                            F#m
She said that nothing in the world would survive
E                          F#m
Lonely spirit float on the wind
E                              F#
No candles burned to light his way in this life
D                             B               N.C.
No one saw the veil of sorrow closing to an end


[Chorus]
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road, ah           
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road, ah           
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road, ah           
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road, ah     [end with a 2/4 measure]

[Verse]
  (*See The Quiet Bit below)
F#m                F#m    
Four barrels roll, down a country road
F#m                 F#m
Driver never sleeps, engine never slows
E                               F#m
They say he'll stop one day and look back to see
E                       F#m
A girl who waits by the bend
E                         F#m
Her silvery laugh will remind him of one past
D                             B
By his side until the night must call her home again


[Chorus]
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E

F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road                
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road                
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road  ah           
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road  ah           
F#m                Bsus2  Bsus2/E
Ghost on the road  ah
F#m                Bsus2  E
Ghost on the road  ah
