Verse 1 Same yellow light on the Shell sign Same "Go Tigers" on the water tower line My old Ford’s parked in the same gravel drive But I don't recognize the girl inside. I’m walkin’ down the aisle of the grocery store Waitin’ for a "hey" or a foot in the door But they look right through me like I’m made of glass Just another shadow watchin’ time pass. Pre-Chorus I was the one that was never gonna leave I was the name on everyone's sleeve Now I’m just a whisper in the chinaberry tree. Chorus (The #1 Hook - Airy and Wide) I’m a small town ghost Hauntin' the streets that I used to love most Turnin’ up corners, a blur in the frame Still know the shortcuts, but forgot my own name. The lights are all on, but I’m out in the cold Tryin’ to find a heart that I already sold. Yeah, I’m a small town ghost Just a memory keepin' me close. Verse 2 My high school jersey’s in a box in the shed Right next to the dreams that I left for dead. The boy I once loved has a kid and a wife And I’m just a footnote in his "happily ever life." Bridge (Spoken/Whispered) You can’t go back once you’ve seen the world There’s no room left for a hometown girl. Final Chorus I’m a small town ghost Hauntin' the streets that I used to love most Turnin’ up corners, a blur in the frame Still know the shortcuts, but forgot my own name. The lights are all on, but I’m out in the cold Tryin’ to find a heart that I already sold. Yeah, I’m a small town ghost Just a memory keepin' me close.
