[Intro]
Dsus2 Am Dsus2
Dsus2 Am Dsus2
[Verse 1]
Dsus2
Ships in the night on a Tangier shore
Am C F
Flashing signals back and forth
Dsus2
Old hands on the smuggler's run
C Am Dsus2
Mexican drugs and American guns
Dsus2 Am Dsus2
[Verse 2]
Dsus2
The pay is better than jiggin' a line
Am C F
Or wasting away in a deep coal mine
Dsus2
A regular guy getting what he can
C Am Dsus2
A 21st century unemployed man
[Chorus]
Dsus2
Even though they'll never catch me
C F Am
They never have and they never will
Dsus2
I'm the ghost on the eastern seaboard
C Am Dsus2
Living the life, getting my fill
[Bridge]
F Dsus2 C G
F Dsus2 C Am A7
[Verse 3]
Dsus2
I wish my daddy could see me now
Am C F
He withered away at the furrow and plow
Dsus2
He hoped for his boy like every man does
C Am Dsus2
To become the man he never was
Dsus2 Am Dsus2
[Verse 4]
Dsus2
My brother called me from the city today
Am C F
Told me his boy was blown away
Dsus2
The shire town is overrun
C Am Dsus2
With Mexican drugs and American guns
[Chorus]
Dsus2
Even though they'll never catch me
C F Am
They never have and they never will
Dsus2
I'm the ghost on the eastern seaboard
C Am Dsus2
Living the life, getting my fill
[Bridge]
