Goodbye was the best thing you told me

I could run but I won't get far

'Cause baby, you're the ghost in my guitar

Yeah, I wanna smash it like a rockstar
in a hotel room
Before I tell it all the things that
I can't tell you
I wanna burn it down to ashes in the driveway
Set that shit on fire, babe
You don't get to haunt me

Oh, ooh-oh
I've been telling my friends,
and they're calling me crazy
Oh, ooh-oh
I'm believing them lately

I don't wanna write another sad song, sad song

Tugging all the strings inside my heart
And when I try to write you out

Bringing back the best and the worst parts

And when I try to let you go
You still echo
'Cause baby, you're the ghost in my guitar

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Baby, you're the ghost in my guitar
Baby, you're the ghost
You're the ghost in my guitar
