Lyrics

[Intro]
So last year I released my debut album, called TWENTY SOMETHING
Sounds like some of y'all know it
But I put out this next song with one of my heroes
Do we have any Chris Stapleton fans in the crowd tonight?
[Instrumental]
Goodbye was the best thing you told me
Only time that I ever heard the truth
Even now I'm haunted by the whole thing
Can't believe I believed in you
[PreChorus]
Oh, woah
I sing to myself all alone in the dark
And, oh, woah
I could run, but I won't get far
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Tuggin' all the strings inside my heart
And when I try to write you out, I write you down
It's pourin' out again
I hear it in my head and there you are
Bringin' back the best and the worst parts
And when I try to let you go, you still echo
'Cause, baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
[PostChorus]
How we feelin' up top in the balcony?
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Wanna smash it like a rockstar in a hotel room
Before I tell it all the things that I can't tell you
I wanna burn it down to ashes in the driveway
Set that shit on fire, babe, you don't get to haunt me
[PreChorus]
Oh, woah
I've been tellin' my friends, and they're callin' me crazy
Oh, woah
I'm believin' them lately
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Tuggin' all the strings inside my heart
And when I try to write you out, I write you down
It's pourin' out again
I hear it in my head and there you are
Bringin' back the best and the worst parts
And when I try to let you go, you still echo
'Cause, baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
[Bridge]
I don't wanna hear another sad song
I don't want a melody to open the door
I told myself the last was the last one
Well, here's one more, yeah
[Instrumental]
Baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Tuggin' all the strings inside my heart
And when I try to write you out, I write you down
It's pourin' out again
I hear it in my head and there you are
Bringin' back the best and the worst parts
And when I try to let you go, you still echo
'Cause, baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
[Instrumental]
Baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Y'all make some noise for this band up here
