One of the British Springsteen songs called the ghost of Tom Joly
Pretty much the song's simple enough
[E] [B]
[A]
[C#m] [C#] [C#m]
[B]
[C#m] Hot soup on the camper under the bridge
Chasin' lines stretching around the corner
[E] Welcome to the [B] new world
Found me sleepin' in the car, running south west
[C#m] No home, no job, no peace, no rest
The [A] highway is a life of night
[E] Nobody's kidding nobody [C#m] about where he'd go
[B] He's sittin' down here in the camper
[C#m] Stretchin' for the ghost of Tom Joly
He pulls a prayer book out of his sleeping bag
[E] Rats up above and he takes [B] a drink
Waitin' for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
In a cardboard box beneath the underpass
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
[E] Got a hole in your belly and a [B] gun in your hand
Sleepin' on a pillow of solid rock
Bathin' [C#m] in the city of Ecuador
[A] The highway is a life of night
[E] Where it's headed [C#m] everybody knows
[B] He's sittin' down here in the camper
[C#m] Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joly
[E]
[B]
[C#m]
Well, well, well, well, [E] well, [B]
well, well
[C#m]
Well, every little cotton weed and the gas
[E] Every hungry newborn baby [B] cries
Well, it's fight against blood and haters in the air
[C#m] Look for me, Mom, I'll be there
There's somebody fightin' for a place to stand
Or [E] a decent job or a [B] helping hand
There's somebody strugglin' to be free
[C#m] Look in their eyes, Mom, you'll see
The [A] highway is a life of night
[E] Where it's headed [C#m] everybody knows
[B] He's sittin' down here in the camper
[C#m] Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joly
[A] The highway is a life of night
[E] Nobody's gettin' nobody [C#m] without a buried boo
He's [B] sittin' down here in the camper
[C#m] Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joly
[A] The highway is a life of night
[E] Where it's headed [C#m] everybody knows
[B] He's sittin' down here in the camper
With the ghost of Tom Joly
