 Dm
Pack up all those phantoms
C                A#      Dm
Shoulder that invisible load
 C              A#
Keep on riding north and west
Dm                        C   A#
Haunting that wilderness road
              Dm C A#
Like a ghost rider

Carry all those phantoms
Through bitter wind and stormy skies
From the desert to the mountain
From the lowest low to the highest high
Like a ghost rider

 E              Dm
Keep on riding north and west
      E               Dm
Then circle south and east
  E            Dm               E
Show me beauty but there is no peace
 Dm            E   Dm E
For the ghost rider,
          Dm     E
For the ghost rider

Chorus:
G
Shadows on the road behind
F               D#
Shadows on the road ahead
G
There's nothing to stop you now
F                A#
Nothing can stop you now
G
There's a shadow on the road behind
F                       D#
There's a shadow on the road ahead
G
There's nothing to stop you now
F                 A#
Nothing can stop you now

Sunrise in the mirror
Lightens that invisible load
Riding on a nameless quest
Haunting that wilderness road
Like a ghost rider

Just an escape artist
Racing against the night
A wandering hermit
Racing toward the light
From the white sands
To the canyon lands
To the redwood stands
To the barren lands
To the barren lands

Chorus

Nothing can stop you now
Nothing can stop you now (Like a ghost rider)
