Dsus2       Am Dsus2
Dsus2       Am Dsus2

[Verse 1]
Dsus2
Ships in the night on a Tangier shore
Am               C        F
Flashing signals back and forth
Dsus2
Old hands on the smuggler's run
C                 Am       Dsus2
Mexican drugs and American guns

Dsus2       Am Dsus2

[Verse 2]
Dsus2
The pay is better than jiggin' a line
Am               C        F
Or wasting away in a deep coal mine
Dsus2
A regular guy getting what he can
C                 Am       Dsus2
A 21st century unemployed man

[Chorus]
Dsus2
Even though they'll never catch me
           C                   F     Am
They never have and they never will
        Dsus2
I'm the ghost on the eastern seaboard
           C    Am          Dsus2
Living the life, getting my fill

[Bridge]
F    Dsus2    C     G
F    Dsus2    C     Am  A7

[Verse 3]
Dsus2
I wish my daddy could see me now
   Am                   C          F
He withered away at the furrow and plow
   Dsus2
He hoped for his boy like every man does
     C               Am    Dsus2
To become the man he never was

Dsus2       Am Dsus2

[Verse 4]
Dsus2
My brother called me from the city today
Am                  C     F
Told me his boy was blown away
Dsus2
The shire town is overrun
     C                   Am     Dsus2
With Mexican drugs and American guns

[Chorus]
Dsus2
Even though they'll never catch me
           C                   F     Am
They never have and they never will
        Dsus2
I'm the ghost on the eastern seaboard
           C    Am          Dsus2
Living the life, getting my fill

[Bridge]
F    Dsus2    C     G
F    Dsus2    C     Am  A7

[Outro]
Dsus2
Am     C   F
Dsus2
C      Am  Dsus2
Dsus2
Am     C   F
Dsus2
C      Am  Dsus2
C      Am  Dsus2
C      Am  Dsus2
