Intro: F C Bb C

Verse 1:
F                   C
 Momma, I'm missing home
                         Bb
And California's getting colder

And colder, and colder
  F
I miss you
                   C
Momma, I'm getting old
                              Bb
Does that mean you're getting older?

And older, and older
  Dm
I miss you

Pre-Chorus:
                 F
Momma, don't you know
                      G
There's nothing to be sorry about?
                Bb
I'm so proud of all you've done

Chorus:
F                  C
 Take me down your old street
             Gm                        Bb
Tell me your memories of when you were young

And when you fell in love
F                     C
 Drive me through the country
             Gm
Tell me your story
                Bb
And you can play all of your favorite songs
F                C
'Cause I'm gonna need this
                 Gm                       Bb                  F
When I'm holding pictures of you and that's all that I've got left

Post-Chorus:
C                  Gm   Bb
 All that I've got left
                  F
All that I've got left

Verse 2:
                     C
Lately, it's getting hard
                             Bb
I've started looking like my father

And it makes me cry a little bit

Pre-Chorus:
                           Dm
'Cause he really should've made it big
                           C
'Cause, damn, he's good at everything
                 G
And everything I am's because of you
      Bb
I'm a man because of you

Chorus:
F                  C
 Take me down your old street
             Gm                        Bb
Tell me your memories of when you were young

And when you fell in love
F                     C
 Drive me through the country
             Gm
Tell me your story
                Bb
And you can play all of your favorite songs
F                C
'Cause I'm gonna need this
                 Gm                       Bb                  F
When I'm holding pictures of you and that's all that I've got left

Post-Chorus:
C                  Gm   Bb
 All that I've got left
                  F   C Gm
All that I've got left
                  Bb
All that I've got left

Biography

A need to connect authentically drives every aspect of Benson Boone’s artistry. From his unflinchingly honest lyrics to hand-drawn artwork, there is no buffer between him and the listener. This is particularly apparent on “GHOST TOWN,” the 19-year-old’s astonishing debut single. A poignant piano ballad about moving on before love turns sour, this is the calling card of a major new talent. “Maybe you’d be happier with someone else, maybe lovin’ me is the reason you can’t love yourself,” he belts over melancholy keys.
