Upchurch - Ghost Ranch

                [Intro]
 
Am  Dm   E7
Whooooooahhhh
Am      Dm
Whooooooaahh
 
[Verse]
 
E       Am                   G                   Dm              E
There's smoke on a hill deep in the woods comin' from a run down cabin
Am                          G                       Dm                E
The lights come on when the rain pours down and the tin roof's makin' racket
         Am                         G                        Dm           E
It has a tree stump burned with the lyrics of a song with no writer to be known
    Am                          G                 Dm                      E
But it's only stormin' and past midnight when the Ghost Ranch lights come on
 
[Chorus]
 
         Am                      G
And they purge to the sound of a banjo pickin'
        F                           E
And the pictures hit the floor into little glass pieces
        Am                         G
And the dogs all bark when there's no one there
F                           E
At a silhouetted man with a piercin' stare
Am                 G                       F
And they don't die down 'til the sun comes up
E          Am            G
Yeah, they whisper in my ear tellin' me I'm the one
F        E                       Am
When the Ghost Ranch lights come on
G    Dm
Come on
         Am                      Am
When the Ghost Ranch lights come on
     Dm       E
Come on, come on
 
[Verse]
 
Am             G
Sleepy hollow, old Coke bottles
Dm              E
Civil War coins found in my yard
Am                  G
Footsteps walk hard on my catwalk
Dm                        E
Through these sound waves they steady talk
       Am                          G
And it sounds like a time from the past I can't explain
    Dm                             E
Not unless you're from the 60's on Cadillacs and cocaine
Am                          G
The realm that got me was a burnin' ring of fire
              Dm                              E
Now there's a ring around my ranch and I'm forever stuck inside
 
[Chorus]
 
       Am                      G
And we purge to the sound of a banjo pickin'
F                               E
The pictures hit the floor into little glass pieces
Am                             G
The dogs all bark when there's no one there
        F                      E
I'm the silhouetted man with a piercin' stare
    Am           G                       F
And we won't die down 'til the sun comes up
E        Am                      G
And I'ma whisper in your ear and tell you you're the one
F         E                       Am
Watch the Ghost Ranch lights come on
     Dm
Come on
          Em                      Am      Dm
Watch the Ghost Ranch lights come on whooooooa
E
Whooohhh
