[Intro] [bright clean electric guitar lead riff, distorted rhythm guitar power chords, driving drums] [Verse 1] [distorted guitar palm-muting, bass and drums continue] I'm staring at the ceiling fan Thinking 'bout the way we began Another night in this empty room Waiting for the sun to break the gloom [Pre-Chorus] [guitar palm-muting stops, chords ring out] And I know, yeah I know That I'm better off alone But I'm still picking up the phone [Chorus] [full band intensity, crashing cymbals, open power chords] I'm just a ghost in your hometown Waiting for the walls to come crashing down You're the spark that started the fire And I'm just caught on the wire (Caught on the wire) [Bridge] [drums drop to half-time feel, clean guitar lead riff returns] It's not the way it used to be [snare roll build up] It's not the way it used to be [Chorus] [full band, high energy] I'm just a ghost in your hometown Waiting for the walls to come crashing down You're the spark that started the fire And I'm just caught on the wire [Outro] [final power chord rings out, feedback swell] [cymbal crash]
