Ghost Town Blues
[Verse]
Tumbleweeds rollin' where we used to play
Dust on the streets where dreams would sway
Saloon doors swingin' now empty and cold
My hometown's lost its heart and soul

[Chorus]
Where did you go my childhood wild
Ghost town blues in the home of the mild
Echoes of laughter now silence so loud
This ghost town livin' ain't makin' us proud

[Verse 2]
Windows are boarded where lights used to glow
Shadows dance slow where good times would flow
Horses once pranced now silence takes their place
Life left behind in a dusty embrace

[Chorus]
Where did you go my childhood wild
Ghost town blues in the home of the mild
Echoes of laughter now silence so loud
This ghost town livin' ain't makin' us proud

[Bridge]
Winds howl through alleys like lost memories
Stars shine down on forgotten histories
Galloping dreams now walkin' on air
Ghost town blues show me you care

[Chorus]
Where did you go my childhood wild
Ghost town blues in the home of the mild
Echoes of laughter now silence so loud
This ghost town livin' ain't makin' us proud

Mr. Jones
