ghost of thoreau easy guitar chords by 
Jason White

Verse 1
D
I scoured the wasteland,
Bm
G
F#m
scorched and seedy
G
A
D
Looking for the writing on the wall
G
F#m
But all I found was some fool's graffiti
G
A
D
On the door of a shithouse stall
Bm
A
I crawled the miles between
G
D
living and survival
Bm
G
Where priests and
A
G
princes seldom go
D
Bm
F#m
That's how I came to my late arrival
G
A
D
At the house of the ghost of the road
Out where the ever clear kneels
Bm
F#m
to kiss the wild wood
G
A
D
and caress the breast of mother earth
I stood like a scarecrow
Bm
F#m
in the land of my childhood
G
A
D
and called out the demons of my birth
Bm
A
I screamed the question,
G
D
why do we keep on guessing
Bm
A
G
at something we all already know?
D
Bm
I wasn't sure who I
F#m
was addressing
G
A
D
when up walked the ghost of the road
Bm
F#m
Yes, the wisdom of your kingdom
G
A
D
has escaped my grasp
Bm
F#m
So don't you come back unless you bring
G
A
D
some answers to the questions I ask
Bm
A
I'll bury them on a hillside
G
greener than your money
D
Bm
A
Where your powers of
G
greed can never grow
D
You'll find me by the fire
Bm
F#m
Playin' gin and rummy
G
A
D
Bm
And drinkin' with the ghost of the road
A
G
D
Bm
A
G
D
Bm
F#m
G
A
D
I've seen you flying high
Bm
F#m
all across the jet stream
G
A
Escaping all you've laid to waste
D
Bm
Safe and secluded in your blue
F#m
-blooded wet dream
G
A
D
With all bitter memories erased
Bm
A
Miles and miles above the
G
D
huddling masses
Bm
A
Pointing at their ghettos down below
G
D
An d when you come down
Bm
F#m
you can kiss two asses
G
A
D
Mine and the ghost of the rose
Bm
F#m
G
A
D
Yeah, yeah
Bm
F#m
G
A
D
Bm
F#m
G
A
D
La la la la la la la

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
