[Verse 1]
Am
I don't know what to think about this virus
               F
It started in China, now everybody in America's hiding
            C
There's no groceries 'cause people start to panic and buy it
                G
The shelves are empty, the ones with plenty, already stockpiling
             Am
Y'all making memes, think it's funny? Wait a week till the riots
       F
Wait a month till the only way to eat is be violent
             C
It's not the sickness that's scary, it's all the people who're violent
              G
The government's lying, they're tryna keep us calm through the sirens
                Am
We know it's for real, and now all the pharmaceutical giants
               F
Don't have the cure that they can sell you, so now everyone's dying
            C
There's no vaccines and medication made that can fight it
              G
I guess it's time to pray to God, we can't rely on the science

[Prechorus]
     Am
And everyone around me in a mask and some gloves
    F
The stock market crashed, and the banks 'bout to bust
        C
Tell us "Sanitize our hands, this will pass, it's a bug,
       G
Stay inside, you'll be fine", Till we're trapped there for months

[Chorus]
        Am                          F
It's a ghost town, we're in this together
                        C                               G
They're closing all the stores down, we're heading for shelter
       Am                         F
It's a war, now they'll always remember
                      C                              G
We're locking all our doors down, we're sticking together
       Am
It's a ghost town

[Verse 2]
         Am
This a pandemic, but we don't listen to the news
            F
'Cause they lied to us for years, so how we know that this the truth?
    C
And most of us are young enough to think that we're immune
           G
So we just pass it on to people who won't survive it like you
            Am
It's either worse than they're telling us or it's nothing at all
          F
But the schools are shut down and ghosttowning them all
              C
They go quarantine the city, block the road out of dodge
             G
Then tell us leaving our homes is actually breaking the law
         Am
This is just the beginning, you know it's gotta get worse
        F
If the doctors get sick, the hospitals won't work
          C
The conspiracy theories all sound like facts, that's for sure
         G
But the fact is, we're trapped on this planet called Earth

[Prechorus]
        Am
And the bleach gone, the bread gone, the water sold out
    F
The meat gone, the milk gone, the pasta sold out
      C
Don't leave anything for anyone, you hoard it for yourself
             G
You'd rather tell them "Go to hell" than be a man and go and help

[Chorus]
        Am                          F
It's a ghost town, we're in this together
                        C                               G
They're closing all the stores down, we're heading for shelter
       Am                         F
It's a war, now they'll always remember
                      C                              G
We're locking all our doors down, we're sticking together
       Am
It's a ghost town

[Bridge]
Am
  We're hoping for the best, but we're preparing for the worst
         F
There's one thing we're not scared of: it's hard work
      C
We're up against an enemy that doesn't have a face
           G
There's no bombs we can drop, there's nowhere we can aim
           Am
There's no soldiers to stop with a tank at the gates
           F
There's no cure that we've got or a pill we can take
           C
There's no food, it's been bought, the truth is we're afraid
   G
We sit inside our rooms, and we pray

[Chorus]
        Am                         F
It's a ghost town, we're in this together
                        C                              G
They're closing all the stores down, we're heading for shelter
       Am                        F
It's a war, now they'll always remember
                      C                            G
We're locking all our doors down, we're sticking together
       Am
It's a ghost town
