[Verse 1]
Am Dm F G
Hard times, wages, gone with the ages
Am Dm
See factory walls are crumbling
F G
Now all the coins missing from the fountain
Am Dm F G
Old brick, old pine, hewed from trees from another time
Am Dm
Used to hang out at the depot when they came in
F G
Freight trains full of lumber from the mountain
[Chorus]
C Em Am F
Now we’re living in a ghost town
C Em Am F
Now we’re living in a ghost town, see
C Em Am F
Now we’re living in a ghost town
C Em Am F
Now we’re living in a ghost town, see, see
[Interlude]
see, see

[Verse 2]
Am Dm F G
My dad, since 18, steel plant, near main street
Am Dm
Savin’ money so he can ask the young waitress
F G
The one with the red hair who's always anxious
Am Dm F G
Clocked in, 4 kids, piled up on the horse hair mattress
Am Dm
30 years at the forgery working
F G
Got a notice that the factory was closing
[Chorus]
C Em Am F
And now we’re living in a ghost town
C Em Am F
And now we’re living in a ghost town, see
C Em Am F C
Now we’re living in a ghost town, see the money all but left now
Em Am F
Now we’re living in a ghost town, see, see, see
C G Dm F
See, see, see, see, see, see, see, see
C G Dm
See, see, see, see, see

[Bridge]
C G
But I'm still here, most of us are
F Am G
There's no happiness here, except for the kind you can score
Dm F
Now folks my age dropping like flies
G
Can’t stop once they get a hit of the good life
