Ghosts of the Highway by mpolemettinen

Ghosts of the Highway

*(Verse 1: Lead Vocal)*  
I wandered through the shadows, where the lost souls lay,  
The moonlight whispers secrets of the sins that led me stray.  
Echoes of the past, they haunt me like a ghost,  
The weight of every burden, it’s the darkness I know most.

*(Chorus: Lead + Background Vocals)*  
**Lead:** Can you hear the chains rattlin'?  
**Background:** Rattlin’ chains, oh, rattlin’ chains!  
**Lead:** Can you feel the fire burnin'?  
**Background:** Fire burnin’, oh, fire burnin’!  
**Lead:** We’re the ghosts of the highway,  
**Background:** Highway, oh, highway!  
**Lead:** We’ll march ‘til the break of day!  
**Background:** Break of day, oh, break of day!

*(Verse 2: Lead Vocal)*  
With a fiddle crying softly, and a guitar’s mournful sigh,  
I can feel the chains of sorrow that bind me to the sky.  
Through the towns of desperation, where the shadows come alive,  
I’ll raise my voice to heaven, pray to keep my soul alive.

*(Bridge: Lead Vocal)*  
Oh, with every step I take, I feel the rhythm in my bones,  
Ghostly voices rising up, they’re calling me back home.  
In this revival of the lost, where the haunting never fades,  
I’ll stand tall in this darkness, let my heart be unafraid.

*(Outro: Lead Vocal)*  
So gather ‘round my people, let the music heal our pain,  
In the darkness we’ll find shelter, beneath the pouring rain.  
With a chain-rattle heartbeat, we’ll walk this road we tread,  
For we are the unbroken, and the fire won’t be dead.

*(Chant Repeat: Background Vocals)*  
Rattlin’ chains, oh, rattlin’ chains!  
Fire burnin’, oh, fire burnin’!  
Highway, oh, highway!  
Break of day, oh, break of day!  
(Spoken softly)  
We are the ghosts... of the highway.
