Am 
Well, he sat down right in front of me, and I said 
    C          G                 Am 
It looks like you got a story to tell 
    Am 
He offered up a friendly smile 
     C            G              Am                      
Said I'm just a ghost rider on this train 
       F 
So I pressed him just a little bit harder 
  G                                Am 
There's got to be more to it than that 
          Am 
He said, son I was there in '45 
         C 
When my mother was burned 
        G                     Am 
And my sister was shot in the back 

         F             C  
It had started with a rumor 
  G               Am 
Then it happened fast 

        F            C 
We're shuffled into box cars 
     G                  Am 
And rolled on down the track 
           F                C 
There was nothing we could do 
      G                Am 
Just roll across the plains 

F                 G 
We were all just ghost riders 
                     Am 
Ghost riders on the train 
         Am 
When he turned to watch the fields roll by 
         C            G                   
I saw a single tear 
                  Am 
Reflect off the glass 
Am 
And for a while he disappeared 
      C             G 
To a distant rainy night 
              Am 
Then he came right back 
   F 
I didn't know what to say or do 

         G                                  Am 
But he pressed on, there's more to it than that 
        Am 
I can still feel the cuts from the barbed-wire fence 
           C             G 
Taste the taste of fear 
                           Am 
And smell the smell of the rats 

         F             C  
It had started with a rumor 
 G                Am 
Then it happened fast 
        F            C 
We're shuffled into box cars 
     G                  Am 
And rolled on down the track 
           F                C 
There was nothing we could do 
      G                Am 
Just roll across the plains 
F                 G 
We were all just ghost riders 
                     Am 
Ghost riders on the train

Am 
When I stood with him outside the gates 
      C                   G                                        
Some three hundred-fifty miles southeast of 
    Am 
Berlin 
   Am 
A wicked wind blew from the west 
        C           G            Am 
And a chill rippled up under my skin 

     F 
He closed his eyes and asked dear God 

          G                             Am 
What the hell was the sense of all of this 
Am 
Was it all part of your grand design 
            C            G 
Or just a speck in time 
                    Am 
Something that you missed 

         F             C  
It had started with a rumor 
 G                Am 
Then it happened fast 
       F            C 
Were shuffled into box cars 

     G                  Am 
And rolled on down the track 
           F                C 
There was nothing we could do 
      G               Am 
Just roll across the plains 
F                  G 
We were all just ghost riders 
                     Am 
Ghost riders on the train 
F                  G 
We were all just ghost riders 
                     Am 
Ghost riders on the train
