Ghosts - Jake Owen

He said he had to stop

Hadn’t had a drop

Of anything

Stonger than coffee

In 10 months 3 weeks and 1 long day

He pushed away his plate

Said it’s better late

Then never done

When it comes

To gettin right

It took a while but I saw the light

Bridge

He said somethings they cast long shadows

That I never will out run

And everyday I spend a-livin'

The ghost of all the things that I’ve done…

Chorus

Wrong

Grab a chair cause the list is long

I can write you a country song

About the reasons I’ll be going home

To a house full of memories

Things I wish I done differently

When I’m feeling weak the keep me strong

The ghost of all the things that I’ve done wrong

He said there’s a spot of paint

And it just ain’t

The right shade

But it covers up the hole I made

Where I broke my wrist the night she left

And there’s a lot of friends

That I ain’t never seen in a lot of years

Some are still hangin' around

In old pictures I just can’t take down

Bridge

He said some things they cast long shaddows

That I never will out run

And everyday I do battle

With the ghost of all the things I’ve done…

Chorus

Wrong

Grab a chair cause the list is long

I can write you a country song

About the reasons I’ll be going home

To a house full of memories

Things I wish I done differently

And when I’m feeling weak the keep me strong

The ghost of all the things that I’ve done wrong

I got a heart full of memories

Things I wish I done differently

And when I’m feeling weak they keep me strong

The ghost of all the things…

I’ve done wrong

He said he had to stop

Hadn’t had a drop

Of anything

Stonger than coffee

In 10 months 3 weeks and 1 long day
